Description
As #6870 advocated for the q
tag, likewise the object
tag is self-nestable.
As proof of its validity, the W3C's HTML4 documentation for object
includes an example of the self-nesting of that tag . Down a bit from this link , their example is:
<!-- First, try the Python applet --> <OBJECT title="The Earth as seen from space" classid="http://www.observer.mars/TheEarth.py"> <!-- Else, try the MPEG video --> <OBJECT data="TheEarth.mpeg" type="application/mpeg"> <!-- Else, try the GIF image --> <OBJECT data="TheEarth.gif" type="image/gif"> <!-- Else render the text --> The <STRONG>Earth</STRONG> as seen from space. </OBJECT> </OBJECT> </OBJECT>
And another example they used for the param
tag (scroll back a few lines from that link target to see the example):
<OBJECT id="obj1"> <PARAM name="param1"> <OBJECT id="obj2"> <PARAM name="param2"> </OBJECT> </OBJECT>
A unit test patch will be forthcoming.
