Odd... the only "plug-in" required is Netscape's default media player, to
load the MIDI file with; that should be a no-brainer for either a Mac or PC
running Netscape. Anyone know why NS on a Mac would (apparently)
think that a MIDI file is in fact some kind of unknown "text/html" file?

Oops. I occasionally get caught by this, the fact that NS on the PC
ignores transparent colors in background images, but NS mac and MSIE
don't. Sometimes I inadvertantly make part of a background image
transparent, and never notice if I don't test it at some point in MSIE.
(Which I haven't done yet.)

Yeah, my mistake, meant to change the link colors vis-a-vis the various
background colors, didn't quite finish.
Thanks for the very helpful feedback, Suz.
