Hi guys,
There seems to be abug in outlook with regard to objects.
The normal way to embed objects in html is as follows:
<object ...>
<embed></embed><noembed>...</noembed>
</object>
This allows IE to shw the "object" and non-IE browsers to
show the "embed" tag. If the tags are not supported (or
restricted!) it will show the noembed tag.
This causes problems in outlook since it automatically
shows the non rich media content and then a "blank no
content loaded" image - which looks like the object tag
not initialising completely. Content works fine in non
Outlook clients (ie if restricted it shows the image and
if not restricted shows the rich media content)
However in OUTLOOK if i do the following:
<object ...>
<embed></embed><a href..><img.."></a>
</object>
The content will work in non Outlook email clients using
the embed tags and if restricted then the html code
instead. In Outlook clients the object tag is used when
not restricted, and the image is shown in THE MAJORITY of
scenarios with restricted settings - sometimes however
(and it seems to be according to the type of email
clicked on BEFORE you select this email) both the image
and the object is shown. As before the object tag is only
partially initialised - it shows a blank image.
Is this something that can be fixed or is this a known
bug?
Cheers,
Riaz
