I'd still give it a try... I think that IE does actually recognize "embed" - it just doesn't do anything with it. Even if doesn't when constructing the object model it should still treat it as a tag with an ID (give it a try - make up a nonsense tag and wrap something in it - you should still be able to get that element by ID and manipulate it). Remember that the various DOM functions are designed to now "know" what the tag are: they work on arbitrarily defined XML as well as valid HTML. I'm still not sure that's the problem but it seems possible - the second id="" could be "taking over" your id and making the original one inaccessible.
