Interface HTMLObjectElement

All Superinterfaces:

Element, HTMLElement, Node

public interface HTMLObjectElement
extends HTMLElement

Generic embedded object. Note. In principle, all properties on the object element are read-write but in some environments some properties may be read-only once the underlying object is instantiated. See the OBJECT element definition in HTML 4.0.

See also the Document Object Model (DOM) Level 2 Specification.

Since:

1.4, DOM Level 2
