I properly set an EMBED to play a .MID file (from a PHP page, but I also tried it from HTML), uploaded the files, but it doesn't work. It works fine locally, and the file is there as I can download it. I set the SRC for EMBED as both filename and tried fullurl/filename but nothing. No 404 showing in the log either. It does show a
206 code in the log for the midi file request (partial file request, probably due to a streaming media)
MIME type audio/midi is set, I even tried audio/x-midi but nothing (both verified as being on through CPANEL/Mime types)
test: (myurl, see www below) /redsox_collage/miditest.html
(I don't want this link indexed
)
Anyone?

Well it's working just fine when loading it in our browser.
(lol, what a tacky tune! sounds like some TV comedy series intro in MIDI format)
Hmm, okay thanks. I normally use FF but I don't have the plugin for it. My IE must be outdated or broken
I wonder why it works locally but not remotely. Other mid files play fine on other servers I've tested.
It's "Sweet Caroline" by Neil Diamond. It's an official song of the Boston Red Sox (an American baseball team, in case you computer geeks didn't know
) I'm assuming a MIDI doesn't violate (serious) copyright.
Thanks again.
I found a work-around for it. I placed EMBED first, then BGSOUND (which doesn't work with some browsers) after it - bgsound works remotely. I must have a security setting wrong or something. EMBED works locally but not remotely - weird.
Glad to hear you've got it working!
