I don't know what M$ products use to build MIDI into HTML, but the right
way to do it according to HTML v4.01 (see http://www.w3.org/) is to use
objects:
13.3 Generic inclusion: the OBJECT element
<!ELEMENT OBJECT - - (PARAM | %flow;)*
-- generic embedded object -->
<!ATTLIST OBJECT
%attrs; -- %coreattrs, %i18n, %events --
declare (declare) #IMPLIED -- declare but don't instantiate
flag -- classid %URI; #IMPLIED -- identifies an
implementation --
codebase %URI; #IMPLIED -- base URI for classid, data,
archive-- data %URI; #IMPLIED -- reference to object's
data --
type %ContentType; #IMPLIED -- content type for data --
codetype %ContentType; #IMPLIED -- content type for code --
archive %URI; #IMPLIED -- space separated archive list --
standby %Text; #IMPLIED -- message to show while loading
--
height %Length; #IMPLIED -- override height --
width %Length; #IMPLIED -- override width --
usemap %URI; #IMPLIED -- use client-side image map --
name CDATA #IMPLIED -- submit as part of form --
tabindex NUMBER #IMPLIED -- position in tabbing order --

Start tag: required, End tag: required.
