Is it possible to download embedded Midi file ?

Hi,

Would it be possible to download an embedded midi file from a web site?
The source code is something like:

if(ap_name=='Netscape')
{
document.write('<embed src="/data/midi/music/ss100.mid" autostart
=true hidden=true loop=2')
}
else
{
document.write('<bgsound src="/data/midi/music/ss100.mid"
autostart =true hidden=true loop=2')

Thanks

It's not necessary! If the file has already played, it's in your
internet temp folder.

Click
Tools - Internet Options - General tab - Settings - View files.
The .mid file should be in there. If you have too many temp
files for easy identification, delete them all and refresh the site.
Only the files from that site will be present. This also works for
flash files.

Or try leaving the server name in the URL line and adding the location
of the file you want:

http://www.example.com/data/midi/music/ss100.mid

You should get a prompt to download the file. That technique does not
work with files that your browser can display, so Tom's technique is
better for that.

Dear Bob,

I have tried your suggestion but unfortunately, it says that it is
forbidden.

How about posting a link to the website where you are trying to retrieve
this midi file from.

Good luck,
