Example - Simple cross-browser embedding
This is a simple example for an embedded QuickTime Player. Here the EMBED Tag is ”nested” into the OBJECT Tag. As we have seen in the book Internet Explorer uses the OBJECT Tags to embedd an ActiveX control with a given ID into a HTML page.
For a long time Apple didn’t release an ActiveX control. Because of this the Netscape Plug-In was used both on Internet Explorer and Netscape. Microsoft stoped the support of Netscape Plug-Ins in Internet Explorer 5.5 and shortly after this Apple published the ActiveX control of the QuickTime Player.
The source code below just embedds a QuickTime ImageWindow without any controls, buttons or info panels.
