XHTML 1.0 - Embed element and FLASH problem

Guest
Greetings...<br />
<br />
<br />
I have written some code (XHTML 1.0 transitional) which validates fine. The <br />
<br />
page is ok under IE4+ and Mozilla 1.0+...<br />
<br />
My problem are some FLASH animations....Validating with the embed element in <br />
<br />
the code (in the object element) triggers an error on the validator. Removing <br />
<br />
the element <embed>, FLASH appears on IE but under Mozilla nothing...<br />
<br />
Is the embed tag deprecated...?<br />
<br />
Can someone shed some light.....?Help.....!<!--content-->Originally posted by cssrules <br />

<br />
No, embed was never even in the specs. It's an old proprietary NS tag.<br />
<br />
The correct tag to use is <object><br />
<br />
This article show exactly how to do it correctly<br />
