Embed or Object tags for media players, what are the problems?

Asked by fredshovel in Web Browsers, Internet Explorer Web Browser, Scripting Languages

Tags: embed, tag, object

You often see advice on embedding sites start with something like, "unfortunately the embed tag was never really accepted into HTML...bla bla bla." So they give you the object code to wrap the embed code in.
I've got IE6 and never have a problem with the simple embed tag for all video and audio players --but since  I can't test on IE7 I'm wondering is there a problem with IE7 and the embed tag -- or any browsers for that matter. Can someone simplify this?
Actually it's the object tags that I can never get working.Start Free Trial
