There was also some discussion of what to do about preventing a plugin
instantiating. It seems to me that authors can do that by not creating
the
<object> element ahead of time.
And, if it's desired to specify the <object> via parsed markup (as
opposed to doing it all with JS), one can omit @type and @data so things
don't load and add them later like so:
<object style="display: none"
data-load-on-demand-type="application/x-java-applet" id="test">
<param name="code" value="MyJavaClass">
fallback
</object>
<script>
window.onload = function() {
var obj = document.getElementById("test");
obj.style.display = "inline-block";
obj.type = obj.dataset["load-on-demand-type"];
alert("Come alive! Hide your fallback! I command you!");
};
</script>
"One or both of the data and type attributes must be present." says the
spec.
<embed> doesn't seem to have the same requirement for src and type. (Also
compare with img, iframe, video...)
