Music on my website, christmastreesofvt.com will not play. The music comes through perfectly when I log into the website on Internet Explorer. What's wrong? My operating system is Windows XP.

<bgsound src="index_files/sound266.mid" loop=1>


Bgsound doesn't work in Firefox. You need to add an object or embed for Firefox.

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Background_music_does_not_play

Use this code instead in the <body> part: 

<embed type="application/x-mplayer2" src="index_files/sound266.mid" height="0" width="0" autostart="1">
<noembed><bgsound src="index_files/sound266.mid" loop=1></noembed>
