    Ok, a few more things you can locate in the <embed> tag. You can specify the size of the player appearing in your page by adding 'width="...."' and 'height="...."', "...." being the number of pixels (for instance, in my pages, most players are 350 pixels wide and 140 pixels high). You can also set the volume: 'volume="...."', "...." being the volume (from 0 to 100).

    Another function is the loop. If you add 'loop="true"', the music will just keep playing endlessly until either the page is closed or the viewer pushes the stop/pause button. Finally, if you're sure the viewer will just love your music, you can hide the player by adding 'hidden="true"' in the <embed>

    Be careful though: if you hide your player and set the loop function to true, that means the viewer will have to listen to the music endlessly without being able to do anything except switch their comp to mute or.....leave your page. So be very careful when using those attributes.
