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.
