I was trying to set something like this up on the wiki, but I don't think it's going to work there. <http://esw.w3.org/topic/HTML/SimpleObject> Would you mind trying something like this for fallback: <picture src="Acid2.png"> <object data="Acid2.png"> <param name="src" value="Acid2.png" >fallback </object> </picture> Though this is rather complicated in the short-term, it would allow us to deprecate (drop/omit/remove) <img> from the spec (leaving it only for UA conformance). Then in an HTML5 future we would only use <picture src="Acid2.png"> fallback</picture>. I guess we'd need to see how the above worked in existing UAs and then see if any further adjustments are necessary. Take care, Rob
