for me at present with my limited time frame without relying on
Javascript libraries.
The problem with using the <object> tag to embed content such as flash
presents some problems in IE7. By default, these controls are
"disabled" and users must click the object to "activate" it. This is
the result of a company that held a patent on embedding content, and
took MS to court over it. However, the patent doesn't include
embedding inline objects (Such as using javascript to embed flash).
I'd strongly encourage you to check out SWFObject. It's quick and easy
to implement. You can also provide alternate content for users without
flash or javascript. That said, the object tag *does* support
alternate content as well.
