    a question to be answered first, how or where is hosting your page? or do you run a server on your own?

    +How do i put a background music on my site

    I'd recommend you adding a frame and "EMBEDDING" the midi. Background midis are a ROYAL PAIN in the part where the back loses its chaste name ^_^

    +How do i put a picture from my computer into html?

    OK - first, get it to the same directory that your html page.
    Second, insert it with <img src="filename.gif" />

    +How do i get a good pattern on my background?

    you use a professional graphics program and insert it on the body tag. <body background="background.gif" bgcolor="#RRGGBB" .... >

    REMEMBER to add the bgcolor field. Use the color nearest to the average of your background. Otherwise you get the risk of having same text color as background.

    +How do i make a java chat room link?

    You add a normal link. The chatroom page would embed the java code with the APPLET tag.

    +How do i make a bot so that my chat room will stay there and op me when i come in ?

    That's not html. Sorry :D

    Dude. Just use MSPaint. (Start->Programs->Accessories->Paint)

    Oh. And about the BG MIDI...
    (BGMUSIC SRC="midi.mid"
    LOOP="infinite")

    That should work.

    Background patterns are overrated, most companies deem a simpler design because it draws more attention to content. A simple color does wonders. White, in itself, is very corporate and clean. However, if you do want a pattern, just like the image tag, but place it in the BODY tag. Don't take that last statement as absolute truth though, as it has been many a year since I dabbled in HTML.

    As for midi, just upload it into your webserver. Either that, or find a midi online that you like, and get the address for it. Then just copy that COMPLETE filename into arch's little script, and viola! You get midi music in your site! Do be careful to use GOOD midi's though...there are millions of sites out there with shrill sounding midi's that people just turn off, anyhow.

    Just a few suggestions (I think everyone else is already helping, but a few opinions from me if I may)...

    +How do i put a background music on my site

    Don't. And if you, make it optional. This can be very annoying for users who just want to browse and don't want to have to listen to whatever tune it is you have. Not to mention those who have cranked speakers and aren't ready for a sudden burst of loud midi. ;)

    +How do i put a picture from my computer into html?

    Can't do it directly from your computer (unless you plan on keeping it on and accessible by your page 24/7 :p). Upload the files to your webhost's space, and use the tags given by the other members above.

    Don't load your pages up with too many large pics. You'll choke off your modem users and also make the page crowded and "ugly".

    +How do i get a good pattern on my background?

    Find one or make one (using any graphics program, not necessarily a big commercial one or even MSPaint [blah]). As previously stated, the most effective backgrounds are those that are subtle and simple. Detailed or bright backgrounds will make your page difficult to read.

    +How do i make a java chat room link?

    You'll need the java file uploaded, obviously. Then link as luvweaver provided.

    +How do i make a bot so that my chat room will stay there and op me when i come in ?

    On Quakenet:
    Step 1: Register your nick
    Step 2: Request L or Q for your channel
