[development] xhtml and embed tag: best way to compliance?

[Fabio Varesano]

Ok! I just implemented this new solution.
Everything works well, only Quicktime has still problems.

IE find an error on this :
clone.outerHTML = clone.outerHTML;

Do you have ideas about this?

You can get the my last video module XHTML at
http://www.varesano.net/video-demo/

After the Quicktime fix I will post here and on drupal.org
asking for help on testing the new code.
I need help on try different browsers and plug-in versions
on the new video module generated code.
