object Tag

HTML 4.01 and XHTML 1.0 Reference: <object> Tag
      HTML <object> Tag - Embedded Object        
                    
          Syntax
          This element uses separate opening and closing tags.

            <object>...</object>          
        

          Usage
          The <object> tag can be used to embed different types of media into a web page. The types of media may include applets, images, movies, audio, PDF files, and Flash.


        One or more <param> tags are sometimes included between the opening and closing <object> tags to provide additional information that the object might require. Other tags may also be included between the opening and closing <object> tags. These additional tags will be displayed in the event that the browser does not support the object.

HTML & XHTML <object> example embedding an image. Note: the <img> tag can also be used for this purpose.<object data="eightball.gif" type="image/gif" width="150" height="252">
 <p>The image object is not supported</p>
</object>

typeThe type attribute specifies the content type of the data. The data is specified using the data attribute.

HTML & XHTML <object> example embedding an image.<object data="eightball.gif" type="image/gif" width="150" height="252">
 <p>The image object is not supported</p>
</object>

usemapThe usemap attribute is used with client-side image maps. The usemap attribute is used to point to an image map that is defined using the <map> tag.


The <area>, <map>, and <object> tags can work together to allow clickable areas to be defined within an image. First an image is specified using an <object> tag. Then a <map> tag is used to specify a client-side image map. The <map> tag contains one ore more <area> tags. Each <area> tag defines a clickable area and an associated link.


The usemap attribute in the <object> tag is used to point to the <map> tag. This is accomplished by setting the name and id attributes in the <map> tag to the corresponding value.


        Note: Client-side image maps can also be created using the <img> tag instead of the <object> tag. Using the <img> tag for image maps seems to be more widely supported among popular browsers.

HTML <object> example using the usemap attribute.<object usemap="#shapes" data="shapes.gif" type="image/gif"
 width="300" height="86">
 <p>The image object is not supported</p>
</object>
<map name="shapes" id="shapes">
 <area shape="rect" coords="2,14,103,78" href="rect.html" alt="rectangle">
 <area shape="circle" coords="164,47,32" href="circle.html" alt="circle">
 <area shape="poly" coords="220,0,232,83,296,34" href="tri.html" alt="poly">
</map>

 <area shape="poly" coords="220,0,232,83,296,34" href="tri.html" alt="poly" />
</map>

vspaceThe vspace attribute specifies the amount of white space, in pixels, above and below the object.

HTML & XHTML <object> example using the vspace attribute.<p>The following image object does not have vspace set.</p>
<p>
<object data="eightball.gif" type="image/gif" width="150" height="252">
 <p>The image object is not supported</p>
</object>
</p>
<p>The following image object has vspace set to 50.</p>
<p>
<object vspace="50" data="eightball.gif" type="image/gif"
 width="150" height="252">
 <p>The image object is not supported</p>
</object>
</p>


Note: This attribute has been deprecated.
widthThe width attribute is used to specify the width of the object. The value is in pixels, or percentage when followed by a percent sign (%). If the value is specified as a percentage, it refers to a percentage of the available space.

HTML & XHTML <object> example embedding an image.<object data="eightball.gif" type="image/gif" width="150" height="252">
 <p>The image object is not supported</p>
</object>

idThe id attribute assigns a unique name to a tag. This allows style sheets or scripts to reference the tag. See id Example 
classThe class attribute assigns a class name to a tag. The class name does not need to be unique. More than one tag can have the same class name. This allows style sheets or scripts to reference multiple tags with a single class name. See class Example 
styleThe style attribute specifies styles for the tag. For Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), the syntax is name:value. Each name:value pair is separated by semicolons. See style Example 
titleThe title attribute specifies additional information about the tag. It is common for browsers to display the title when the pointing device stops over the object. See title Example 
tabindexThe tabindex attribute specifies the tabbing position of the tag. The tabbing sequence runs from lower values to higher values. The valid range of values is between 0 and 32767. See tabindex Example 
onclickThe onclick attribute specifies a 
      script to be run when the object is clicked with a mouse or other pointing device. See onclick Example 
ondblclickThe ondblclick attribute specifies a 
      script to be run when the object is double clicked with a mouse or other pointing device. See ondblclick Example 
onkeydownThe onkeydown attribute specifies a 
      script to be run when a key is pressed down. See onkeydown Example 
onkeypressThe onkeypress attribute specifies a 
      script to be run when a key is pressed and released. See onkeypress Example 
onkeyupThe onkeyup attribute specifies a 
      script to be run when a key is released. See onkeyup Example 
onmousedownThe onmousedown attribute specifies a 
      script to be run when the mouse button, or other pointing device button, is pressed while over the object. See onmousedown Example 
onmousemoveThe onmousemove attribute specifies a 
      script to be run when the mouse, or other pointing device, is moved while it is over the object. See onmousemove Example 
onmouseoutThe onmouseout attribute specifies a 
      script to be run when the mouse, or other pointing device, is moved away from an object after being over it. See onmouseout Example 
onmouseoverThe onmouseover attribute specifies a 
      script to be run when the mouse, or other pointing device, is moved onto the object. See onmouseover Example 
onmouseupThe onmouseup attribute specifies a 
      script to be run when the mouse button, or other pointing device button, is released while over the object. See onmouseup Example 
dirThe dir attribute tells the browser whether the text should be displayed from left-to-right or right-to-left. It does not reverse the direction of the characters, like the <bdo> tag does, but it can help the browser to determine if the text should be aligned on the left side or the right side. See dir Example 
langThe lang attribute specifies a language. This attribute can help the browser to correctly display text. This attribute can also be useful for braille translation software, speech synthesizers, dictionary definitions, etc. See lang Example 
xml:langThe xml:lang attribute specifies a language for XHTML documents. This attribute can help the browser to correctly display text. This attribute can also be useful for braille translation software, speech synthesizers, dictionary definitions, etc. See xml:lang Example

type	The type attribute specifies the content type of the data. The data is specified using the data attribute. HTML & XHTML <object> example embedding an image. <object data="eightball.gif" type="image/gif" width="150" height="252"> <p>The image object is not supported</p> </object>
usemap	The usemap attribute is used with client-side image maps. The usemap attribute is used to point to an image map that is defined using the <map> tag. The <area>, <map>, and <object> tags can work together to allow clickable areas to be defined within an image. First an image is specified using an <object> tag. Then a <map> tag is used to specify a client-side image map. The <map> tag contains one ore more <area> tags. Each <area> tag defines a clickable area and an associated link. The usemap attribute in the <object> tag is used to point to the <map> tag. This is accomplished by setting the name and id attributes in the <map> tag to the corresponding value. Note: Client-side image maps can also be created using the <img> tag instead of the <object> tag. Using the <img> tag for image maps seems to be more widely supported among popular browsers. HTML <object> example using the usemap attribute. <object usemap="#shapes" data="shapes.gif" type="image/gif" width="300" height="86"> <p>The image object is not supported</p> </object> <map name="shapes" id="shapes"> <area shape="rect" coords="2,14,103,78" href="rect.html" alt="rectangle"> <area shape="circle" coords="164,47,32" href="circle.html" alt="circle"> <area shape="poly" coords="220,0,232,83,296,34" href="tri.html" alt="poly"> </map> XHTML <object> example using the usemap attribute. <object usemap="#shapes" data="shapes.gif" type="image/gif" width="300" height="86"> <p>The image object is not supported</p> </object> <map name="shapes" id="shapes"> <area shape="rect" coords="2,14,103,78" href="rect.html" alt="rectangle" /> <area shape="circle" coords="164,47,32" href="circle.html" alt="circle" /> <area shape="poly" coords="220,0,232,83,296,34" href="tri.html" alt="poly" /> </map>
vspace	The vspace attribute specifies the amount of white space, in pixels, above and below the object. HTML & XHTML <object> example using the vspace attribute. <p>The following image object does not have vspace set.</p> <p> <object data="eightball.gif" type="image/gif" width="150" height="252"> <p>The image object is not supported</p> </object> </p> <p>The following image object has vspace set to 50.</p> <p> <object vspace="50" data="eightball.gif" type="image/gif" width="150" height="252"> <p>The image object is not supported</p> </object> </p> Note: This attribute has been deprecated.
width	The width attribute is used to specify the width of the object. The value is in pixels, or percentage when followed by a percent sign (%). If the value is specified as a percentage, it refers to a percentage of the available space. HTML & XHTML <object> example embedding an image. <object data="eightball.gif" type="image/gif" width="150" height="252"> <p>The image object is not supported</p> </object>
id	The id attribute assigns a unique name to a tag. This allows style sheets or scripts to reference the tag. See id Example
class	The class attribute assigns a class name to a tag. The class name does not need to be unique. More than one tag can have the same class name. This allows style sheets or scripts to reference multiple tags with a single class name. See class Example
style	The style attribute specifies styles for the tag. For Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), the syntax is name:value. Each name:value pair is separated by semicolons. See style Example
title	The title attribute specifies additional information about the tag. It is common for browsers to display the title when the pointing device stops over the object. See title Example
tabindex	The tabindex attribute specifies the tabbing position of the tag. The tabbing sequence runs from lower values to higher values. The valid range of values is between 0 and 32767. See tabindex Example
onclick	The onclick attribute specifies a script to be run when the object is clicked with a mouse or other pointing device. See onclick Example
ondblclick	The ondblclick attribute specifies a script to be run when the object is double clicked with a mouse or other pointing device. See ondblclick Example
onkeydown	The onkeydown attribute specifies a script to be run when a key is pressed down. See onkeydown Example
onkeypress	The onkeypress attribute specifies a script to be run when a key is pressed and released. See onkeypress Example
onkeyup	The onkeyup attribute specifies a script to be run when a key is released. See onkeyup Example
onmousedown	The onmousedown attribute specifies a script to be run when the mouse button, or other pointing device button, is pressed while over the object. See onmousedown Example
onmousemove	The onmousemove attribute specifies a script to be run when the mouse, or other pointing device, is moved while it is over the object. See onmousemove Example
onmouseout	The onmouseout attribute specifies a script to be run when the mouse, or other pointing device, is moved away from an object after being over it. See onmouseout Example
onmouseover	The onmouseover attribute specifies a script to be run when the mouse, or other pointing device, is moved onto the object. See onmouseover Example
onmouseup	The onmouseup attribute specifies a script to be run when the mouse button, or other pointing device button, is released while over the object. See onmouseup Example
dir	The dir attribute tells the browser whether the text should be displayed from left-to-right or right-to-left. It does not reverse the direction of the characters, like the <bdo> tag does, but it can help the browser to determine if the text should be aligned on the left side or the right side. See dir Example
lang	The lang attribute specifies a language. This attribute can help the browser to correctly display text. This attribute can also be useful for braille translation software, speech synthesizers, dictionary definitions, etc. See lang Example
xml:lang	The xml:lang attribute specifies a language for XHTML documents. This attribute can help the browser to correctly display text. This attribute can also be useful for braille translation software, speech synthesizers, dictionary definitions, etc. See xml:lang Example Note: XHTML only.
