Question about code generated by the Flash tool

I notice that the code generated by the default Flash tool looks like this for example:

<embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/fSDUklJqj30&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;" width="425" height="344" play="true" loop="true" menu="true"></embed>

There is no "object" tag surrounding this, like comes with the code you get from youtube. It seems to work in the browsers I tried though (Windows: IE8, Mac: Safari 4 and FireFox 3.5).

Does anybody know why there is no object tag present and if this code is, in general, browser compatible?

Thanks,

doug

It seems odd to resurrect a 2009 post, but this describes exactly the same problem I am seeing with CKE 4.3

We are trying to include a page from an external site within ours. The code used is:

<div align="center"><object data="link to external pages removed for privacy" height="800" width="800"></object></div>

We have also tried using iframe/src instead of object/data.

In both cases the code does work, but is not visible in CKE, so cannot be edited. Is there any solution to this?
