I guess you mean
how do you add music :-))
It is very easy to make tpyos (sic)

My reply is:
With great difficulty.

I have been trying for some time and posted queries here. Lately BoatPerson
has been helping but I haven't got there yet.

I think it has to do with the size of the file. When it is large, it doesn't
want to play (at least for me)

See other threads with my name in them to see what I have tried.
 
neutrino,
Yes, I have read that streaming allows you to hear the file as it downloads,
but the question remains - HOW?
(Forgive the shouting, but this has been my continuing problem.)

I have looked at the site you referred to, and I see these are .swf files,
played by this code:
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=4,0,0,0"
width="40" height="30" align="absmiddle">
<param name="movie" value="dreamd.swf">
<param name="quality" value="best">
<param name="wmode" value="transparent">
<param name="bgcolor" value="#400040">
<param name="loop" value="true">
<embed src="dreamd.swf" quality="best" wmode="transparent" bgcolor="#400040"
loop="true"
width="40" height="30" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash"
align="absmiddle">
</object>

Doesn't that mean I need a Flash Editor to create them ?

How can I upload an ordinary file (say .wav or even .mid, which is much
smaller) to my server and then stream it when playing it back. Does my
server need to provide something special? Mine is just a standard FTP site
running Linux / Apache (as I understand).

I have some music on the site (Click "Play/Stop Music") but it doesn't seem
to work all that well
