you should not need a plugin for midi files, you should have that stuff with your audio drivers. I would look at your sound card if midi files are not playing on your system. Is it just on the site or on your system too?

The latest browsers pay close attention to MIME-types for files they download. Make sure you have the correct mime type specified in your HTML document for that MIDI file.

Are you using the <embed>, <object> tags, or the <body bgsound> tag and attribute for the music? That could make a difference too.

The mime type for MIDI files should be something like audio/midi. Do a search on the Internet for mime types.

Another follow-up question too: does the same thing happen on NS 7.1 running on other computers too?
