This means that your system is set up to play midi files in a
web page, but others aren't. You can't be sure that visitors will
be able to play certain media types.

What instructions are you talking about that talk about going
to the behaviors?
I've never had a need to add a midi file to a page, but a
quick Google search returned this page, perhaps it will help:
http://www.boutell.com/newfaq/creating/midi.html
Also, if there is not a very specific reason to be using midi
files, then perhaps you'd want to generate MP3 files instead, as
those tend to be easier to work with, and you can get a Flash
player front end to be able to play/pause/stop and adjust volume.
Maybe start out here:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=flash+mp3+player
And maybe take a look at some of the Dreamweaver extensions
that seem to support MP3 files (shortened URL of adobe.com/exchange
with a search in the DW exchange for mp3):

And maybe even take a look at SoundManager2 a JavaScript (and
Flash) solution that can play sounds
