><EMBED> is obsolete. The W3C has standardized on <OBJECT> for that
Except of course that Netscape supports EMBED and does not yet support OBJECT.
Minor point - except that the vast majority of browsers in use as NS.
I agree that OBJECT is the future - NS says they'll support it in 4.0 - but
right now you have to be pragmatic.
