internet-explorer - Internet Explorer 是否删除了

Question

I have markup in my page that includes the tag:

<body>
  <object codebase="blah" codetype="text/blah">
    <param name="name" value="value"/>
    <div>Some Markup</div>
  </object>
</body>

The idea is for browsers to display the content of the <div> by default, but if a special JS library is present, it will find all the elements and transform the ones it cares about (based on @codetype).

This works in Firefox and WebKit, but fails in IE, because that browser seems to strip off the outer <object> element, and just leaves the inner <div>. That is, under Explorer, the DOM I get from the above markup looks like this:

<body>
  <div>Some Markup</div>
</body>

Is this a documented behavior? Is there any way to make IE preserve the <object> element in the DOM untouched? (I am currently testing this with IE7.)

Note: This isn't for embedding Flash, or similar multimedia.

Hmm... According to a post on MSDN, Internet Explorer before version 7 would remove from DOM any <object> whose content couldn't be rendered.

I guess this makes my problem a catch-22. I can add some data that would make IE render the <object> (such as make it show a 1 pixel image), which would enable the Element in the DOM, but this would hide the "fallback" markup.

If you try to create an object, and it cannot be instantiated, it wouldn't surprise me if the object tag didn't end up being part of the DOM.

要嵌入对象，我建议使用像swfobject这样的库，因为是的，IE 肯定会用这个标签做一些时髦的事情。
