Stopping a sound from playing when window minimised

[duybee]

Hello,
I have embedded a midi file into my html site using:

<embed src="http://www.geocities.com/duybee/3doorsdown_herewithoutyou.mid" hidden="true" autostart="true" loop="true">

The midi plays when i load the webpage, and i would like to stop or better yet pause the midi whenever someone minimises the webpage. I have read many advanced html sites on google and i have not yet found a way to fix this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I don't think that is possible, because the page is still running. I would suggest that you make a play and pause button.

Nope, it isn't possible.

Cheers,

me in the right direction ill be very grateful.
