Syntax
type="MIME type"
Description
The
type attribute is used in addition to (or in place
of) the src attribute,
and lets the author define the MIME
Type of the embed content. In most cases,
though, this attribute is not required as the browser can determine the
MIME type based on the URL or based on the header sent by the server for
the embed content.
Example
<embed src="conference-report.mp4" type="video/mp4"></embed>
Value
MIME type in the format
type/subtype, e.g. "text/html",
"application/x-shockwave-flash" or
"video/mp4"
