I find that very interesting, Bert. Never knew the object tag could be used in such a fashion.
I love this list!

To embed a document in Strict, use the object element. Something like: <object data="foo.html" type="text/html" width="500" height="300"></object> See www.w3.org/TR/html401/present/frames.html#edef-IFRAME And www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/objects.html#edef-OBJECT I do recall reading somewhere that it's possible to link a div to an external source (it used an attribute like "data" or "src") but I think it was a Netscape-ism.
