Hi everyone,

We have a problem is with embedded sound files on our large cultural
web site on the Main Menu at
http://www.istrianet.org/istria/index.html, and on a collection of
other pages that have embedded MIDI or WAV sounds.

One should always check web pages in the making by using
several different browsers since each one will
show a slightly different web page.

Get rid of the Quicktime plugin.
QT / .mov is not allowed on any of my machines.

interesting.  I, otoh, do have Quicktime, since it came with my Mac,
but
I don't hear music on that page in SM, or Opera, or Safari, or Chrome.

Does Quicktime play midi files?

The name of the file not being heard on that page is
"Pachelbel_Canon.mid, and is in the menu frame.

I don't even get prompted to install a plugin.


Yes - the one at this link (Fugue_G.mid) on the site plays for me:

http://www.istrianet.org/istria/illustri/tartini/index.htm

So apparently it's only an issue with the OP's referenced page?



Apparently since I got prompted to install a missing plugin on that
page. Aw shucks, no suitable plugin found.

I would not want to hear any sound because I listen to streaming music
online.

Anyway, the code on the page you link to is <embed
src="media/Fugue_G.mid", and the code on the non working link is
<bgsound src="music/performers/classical/Pachelbel_Canon.mid" loop="1">

Maybe someone forgot to change the coding, or bgsound only works with IE?

I recalled <object> being the correct way to add media.  And w3schools
agreed.

guess my memory works once in awhile

I should have also pointed at:
