To be fair, I can't imagine how it would break any HTML in the wild if IE and every other browser made these simplest forms of object just work with reasonable default parameters : <object data='myimage'> fallback </object> <object data='myvideo'> fallback </object> <object data='myaudio'> fallback </object> <object title="my way cool 2d animated drawing" type='image/canvas'> fallback </object> (obviously only for browsers that already support the canvas API or have suitable plugin to draw on) <object data=myflash'> fallback </object> Am I just being too naive? Take care, Rob
