                     The OBJECT element's design offers a mechanism for
                     specifying alternate object renderings. Each embedded
                     OBJECT declaration may specify alternate content types. If
                     a browser cannot render the outermost OBJECT, it tries to
                     render the contents, which may be another OBJECT element,
                     etc.
                     
                  </p>
                  
                  
                  <p>
                     Objects included in this document that embed audio or video
                     files do not have corresponding valid descriptions. A valid
                     description is an HTML fragment between the &lt;OBJECT&gt;
                     and &lt;/OBJECT&gt; tags that contain the following:
                     
                  </p>
                  
                  
                  <ul>
                     
                     <li>
                        At least one word
                        
                     </li>
                     
                     
                     <li>
                        Another object
                        
                     </li>
                     
                     
                     <li>
                        A link to a valid alternative representation

                     A valid description doesn't contain placeholder text (see
