This html is using object tags. Why ?

Where is this taught and explained ? Are there other tags that will work just as well ?

The <object> tag defines an embedded object within an HTML document. Use this element to embed multimedia (like audio, video, Java applets, ActiveX, PDF, and Flash) in your web pages. If the page you are looking at has an object and end object tag chances are it is emedding one of those in the list or something similar.

Thanks James. I forgot about the use for the tag but that is on me. I just didn't get that far into the course and the tag didn't seem necessary.

Copy and pasting from within Treehouse screens on the ipad is tricky. I finally sorted out that I must actually open things in the Treehouse edit window to copy.. Sorry about that.
