No, this means that the kind of insertion is similar, not the elements themselves, correct me if I am wrong. The kind of use is definitely different, you use the iframe element for a (in my point of view) poor and unnecessary frame integration, and the object element to embed multimedia, like Flash movies, images, etc. As a matter of course, you can use the object element within an iframe. > does it mean IFRAME is a kind of OBJECT, which inherit OBJECT? > (I know that DOM Level 2 HTML specify HTMLIFrame as child of HTMLElement: > http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-HTML/html.html#ID-50708718) No... they are IMHO independent from each other, there is no relation between them... see text above. > I'm willing to implement all the non-trivial datas: APPLET, IMG, EMBED, > and IFRAME (if possible), as a kind of OBJECT. > is this reasonable? As far as I know it is recommended to use the object element for (all) multimedia integration... Me, I recommend to use the img element for images (although you can use the object element for this, too), object elements for alternative multimedia, and to pass on the iframe element.
