[wp-testers] RE: "embed" and standards

[Laura Dahl]

Because of IE, you need some HTML tags that are not part of standard 
XHTML.  However, we need to show our files to all our audience, and 
Flash and others will not show it's movies to all of us if both embed 
and object tags are not there to explain file "embedded" file.

These tags were disallowed in previous versions of the rich text 
editor.  I am personally glad they are now allowed.  I had nothing but 
trouble inserting Flash files without the ability to use the embed and 
object tags.  I think it's a Godsend for those of us trying to maintain 
our edublogs.
