noembed
with embed
Documents that load plugins with the embed
element.
This technique relates to:
Note: Although embed
is widely supported in user agents - it is not a valid part
of HTML or XHTML.
The objective of this technique is to provide alternative content for the
embed
element in a noembed
element. The noembed
is rendered
only if the embed
is not supported. While it can be positioned anywhere on the
page, it is a good idea to include it as a child element of embed
so that it is
clear to assistive technologies that a text alternative is associated with the
embed
element it describes.
Example Code:
<embed src="../movies/history_of_rome.mov"
height="60" width="144" autostart="false">
<noembed>
<a href="../transcripts/transcript_history_rome.htm">Transcript of "The history of Rome"</a>
</noembed>
</embed>
Example Code:
<embed src="moviename.swf" width="100" height="80"
pluginspage="http://example.com/shockwave/download/" />
<noembed>
<img alt="Still from Movie" src="moviename.gif"
width="100" height="80" />
</noembed>;

If this is a sufficient technique for a success criterion, failing this test procedure does not necessarily mean that the success criterion has not been satisfied in some other way, only that this technique has not been successfully implemented and can not be used to claim conformance.
