Run midi file with IE 5.0 or 6.0

Question

I write an applet that play "sound.midi" and bundle it in a jar file.The jar file contains
SoundApplet.class
SimpleThread.class
test.mid
I can listen to the midi by appletviewer but it doesn't work with IE 5.0 or 6.0.
What should I do?(I think the last version of java 2 doesn't support midi files so I want to include jre with my jar file but I don't know how)
Thank you.

Answer 1

I used htmlconverter as you say to automatically install plug in 1.3... but my program doesn't paly midi file.
I looked at a sample(from sun's sound tutorial ) and it play midi file both in appletviewer and IE.I think there is some problem with my code!
import java.util.*;
import java.applet.*;
import java.net.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class SoundApplet extends Applet{
SimpleThread st;
public void init(){
st=new SimpleThread("Thread 1",this);
public void start(){
st.start();
import java.util.*;
import java.applet.*;
import java.net.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class SimpleThread extends Thread{
AudioClip audioClip;
URL url;
public SimpleThread(String str,Applet applet){
super(str);
try{
url = new URL(applet.getCodeBase(),"romance.mid");
}catch(Exception e){
System.out.println("Error 1");
try{
audioClip = applet.getAudioClip(url);
}catch(Exception e){
System.out.println("Error 2");
public void run(){
audioClip.loop();
javac SoundApplet.java
jar -cvf SoundApplet.class SimpleThread.class romance.mid
appletviewer webpage.html (it correctly worked)
but it doesn't work with IE ( webpage.html )
Really thank you for your help.
