Embedding media .... Is there a comprehensive guide out there ..I have three
books .. two of them only mention the Object tag .. one book does outline
how to use the embed tag ..and yes I have successfully embedded movies into
a web page and viewed them in IE and FireFox..

but I am not satisfied ..the information is not comprehensive .. I visited
theW3C .. waste of time! .. various searches found many out of date articles
...

Of all people the W3C should have a good site shouldn't they? ..well .. if
they are in charge then there is no hope of clearing up this <embed>
<object> curmudgeon

why is everyone pulling in different directions .. I don't mind using Object
to embed media .. but I can't stand those incredibly stupid long numbers ..
something to do with MS ActiveX I think .. but I don't know .. useless books
on the subject!

advice welcome
