I don't understand your point. The code that works in MacIE and
MacMozilla is the combination of <object> and <embed>. Both MacIE and
MacMozilla are supposed to support the standard compliant <object>,
the only reason to use <embed> is to allow people with Netscape 4.7
to see the content.
However, since the purpose with my pages is to demonstrate standards
for an academic audience it is not reasonable to support Netscape
4.7. The only browsers I want my page to be useable with is MacIE5,
MacMozilla, WinIE5.5sp2 and newer and WinMozilla (Quicktime is not
available for Mozilla on other platforms, but theoretically, other
distributions of Mozilla should work too).
That is why I want to remove <embed> from the code, but as I
mentioned in my first post the code samples with <object> I included
there did not work with neither MacMozilla or MacIE even though it
validated as xhtml strict.
Therefore, my question is, has anyone embedded qt-content only using
<object> and had it work in MacIE and MacMozilla (as well as in their
Win-counterparts, but that seems to be a smaller problem)? How did
the code look?
Thanks in advance
David
