HTML <object> Tag

The HTML <object> tag is used to embed external resources such as images, videos, or interactive content into an HTML document. It allows you to include objects from external sources directly within your webpage. This can be useful for displaying media content, interactive applications, or other types of resources.

Example:

<object data="example.jpg" type="image/jpeg">
  Your browser does not support the object tag.
</object>

In the above example, an image file example.jpg is embedded into the HTML document using the <object> tag. The data attribute specifies the URL of the external resource, and the type attribute defines the type of the object (in this case, an image file of type JPEG).

Main Attributes of the <object> Tag:

Attribute	Description
data	Specifies the URL of the external resource to be embedded.
type	Specifies the MIME type of the resource being embedded.
width	Sets the width of the embedded object in pixels or as a percentage of the parent container.
height	Sets the height of the embedded object in pixels or as a percentage of the parent container.
name	Specifies a name for the embedded object, which can be used for scripting purposes.
align	Specifies the alignment of the embedded object relative to the surrounding content.

These are some of the main attributes of the <object> tag that can be used to customize how the external resource is displayed within the webpage.
