it works in IE (click on link, starts wmp, plays file), but that's all.
  not surprising.  safari saves the .wmx file to disk, but wmp claims
'the format is invalid.' chimera displays a blank window when you click
the link.

since the .wax file only provides the acutal location of the file, why
don't you just make the links on the page to the .wma files instead?  i
tested this; the browsers download the file and safari is clever enough
to open and play it.
