[Bug 304059] [NEW] Flash not shown using <object>

[Krzysztof Magusiak]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

I'm inserting flash animations using the method found at:
http://latrine.dgx.cz/how-to-correctly-insert-a-flash-into-xhtml

But, I noticed that <object data="flashfile.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"> does not work in FF3 on Ubuntu. The flash animation is not shown (even if you can download it).
Example: http://knowhow.davidgrudl.com/html/embedding-flash/example-final.html

The flash animation can still be viewed or inserted using <embed> (which
is not an XHTML valid method).

My configuration: Ubuntu 8.10, FF 3.0.4, flashplugin-nonfree 10.0.12.36
PS: This bug occurs also on Windows... but other browsers like Opera or GoogleChrome show the animation.
