Default Who composed this march?

I have this march music file archived as being a John Philip Sousa march. I do, however, have reasonable doubt that the march was really compsed by Sousa. But who was it among the famous march composers who made it? Can anyone please try to identify the march music for me?

Cheers, Anders

No, not a spam at all despite the smell and without visuals. I had a serious intent trying to identify a piece of music. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Cheers, Anders

Thank you! Can't see what's wily about using music as a SWFObject and exclude visuals. Must have been unexpected by this forum. I have used a bunch of hours trying to identify the music by title and composer but no avail so far. Perhaps I should assume that this forum is not the adequate place for this kind of question about old-timer music. But, I do a lot of visuals too and this forum had a pleasant smell for me!

Cheers, Anders

the non-standard delivery method is what made me suspicious... music files normaly come as mp3 / wav/ ect. a shockwave object is something id have expected from someone trying to install something on my machine or something similar.

hopefully you can understand why i myself was suspicious.

spam is almost always a first post and either has a link or an attachment, hence the confusion. usually its deleted straight away and the user banned.

anyway i can't open it on my mac....??

Thank you for explaining your suspicious mind. We are surrounded by ActiveX controls and have reasons to constantly be on the watch out. Music embedded as SWFObjects has become a standard especially since Adobe adopted the technique with swfobject.js version 2 for HTML, XHTML and XML. You will probably see many more web pages (not being empty cans) in the near future with scripted swfobjects containing music only with the HTML or XML markup sourcing animated content. The alternative, of course, still being complete *.swf web pages.

Cheers, Anders

i dont however have the faintest idea what it is though.
