SUMMARYAlternative HTML can be specified within an HTML <OBJECT> tag pair. This HTML will be parsed and rendered in the event that the object is not inserted. This is useful for providing additional information and improving the user experience in the event of a code download failure. MORE INFORMATION
The HTML <OBJECT> tag is used to insert an object, such as an ActiveX
control, into a Web page. In the event that the object cannot be installed,
Internet Explorer displays a small icon containing a red cross to indicate
the failure. Aside from authoring, network, or licensing issues preventing
the object from being inserted, the user may have chosen not to download
active content. Alternatively, some browsers do not support the <OBJECT> tag. You can place ordinary HTML between the <OBJECT> and </OBJECT> tags to be displayed in the event that the object is not installed.
