In terms of the standard you are probably looking for the <object>
element and would do
<object
type="put content type of souls.mid here"
data="souls.mid"
width="500" height="20">
<param name="autostart" value="false">
</object>

<object type="audio/midi"
data="http://xahlee.org/Periodic_dosage_dir/sanga_pemci/_p/poor_unfortunate_souls.mid"
width="500" height="20"><param name="autostart" value="false"></object>

ah, yes object. Thanks.

gosh, it doesn't work in Safari,Camino, iCab, Opera. The only browser
in OS X this works is FireFox and the defunct Mac IE!

....screw the tech geekers...back to embed...

It does work in Safari, iCab and other browsers. If it doesn't work for
you, you may have put the object element into the "head" section of your
HTML code.
