generating MIDI in javascript [closed]

Answer 1

QuickTime with data url works with both Firefox and Chrome (recent releases, no betas) You have to follow instructions from quicktime website : initialize QuickTime by calling QT_WriteOBJECTfunction (I had to provide initial valid src pointing to Beethoven's mp3 file, just to keep it from complaining - maybe it's not necessary), register listeners as detailed in the said reference, and after getting callback qt_load, call document.movie1.SetURL(myDataURL) method. I used base64 encoding in data url: "data:audio/midi;base64,...". (content was generated by javascript). Everything worked sensationally well: Play(), Stop(), etc. Most difficult part is reading their monumental doc (note that it has also "HTML" part)
