even simpler than playing the tune on the piano is entering the Parsons Code on the search page, which disregards the size of the intervals - just up, repeat or down, that's all (you can even use 8, 5 and 2, respectively, which turns your numeric keyboard into an intuitive input device).

Subject: keyboard input needed

A virtual keyboard would be a much more reliable and easier input device than whistling into a mic. I can bang things out on a piano I can't sing, and I won't spend time to score out a whole piece just to identify a tune in my head. I really like the functionality of this old site, but it's pretty limited in the number of songs it identifies.

Add a bit of sheet music, along with a MIDI file, simply by entering note names in Lilypond syntax between the [L] and [/L] tags.
For example, you can try what happens if you enter: [l]g'4 g'4 d''4 d''4 e''4 e''4 d''2[/l] (use the Preview function if you don't actually want to post this).
You can create these lists of note names by clicking on piano keys here.

If you just want to sing, whistle, or play a melody so that other forum visitors can hear it, follow these steps:

1. Record your audio here.
2. You should notice a 32-character hash code, something like: 2a40281c5001c5a7d8c9f57fcdeccfaf
3. copy this hash code and paste it into a forum post, enclosed in the audio tags, for example: [audio]2a40281c5001c5a7d8c9f57fcdeccfaf[/audio]

If the original question in a thread is solved, please mark it as solved using the "solved" icon (or by just typing [solved] into your post). This makes life easier for people who are willing to identify melodies, since unsolved problems are easier to spot that way. If a problem turns out to not be solved after all, just write [/solved] in a new post, and the thread will be labeled accordingly.
