No, even though the MIME is not set I have no problem at least not with

Netscape 4. I didn't check it with my Netscape 3 which typically shows

more problems when the MIME is not correct, though on some sites is it

the reverse.

BTW I like your Radio.


It is likely there will be visitors that will get one or more of the

symptoms (one of them is crashing the browser) if the MIME is not set.

The big problem is there is no way to predict how many and how those

visitors' browsers will react. Two of the same exact browsers may get

different symptoms when they visit your site from different locations.

One may get a good pix and the other could be served a blank pix.

Generally newer browsers are less affected but they are certainly not

immune to server MIME problems (with the exception of MSIE Win

95/98/NT).
