Have a look at the online tools listed at the abc applications directory at:
http://www.musicaviva.com/abc/abcapp/index.tpl
(select "online" in the OS menu and click on the search button)
In addition, the tune submission page at John Chamber's site is
effectively an online interface for jabc2ps and abc2midi, allowing you
to enter an abc tune and get it as sheet music or midi. The reason it
isn't listed in the directory, is that I'm not sure how happy John is
about people using it that way.
