IE7 and object tag

[iamrane]

This doesnt work in ie7. (it works in ie89 and good browsers.)

<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="437" height="288" id="viddler"> <param name="movie" value="//vimeo.com/18908510/"> <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /> <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /> <param name="flashvars" value="fake=1"/> <embed src="//vimeo.com/18908510" width="437" height="288" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowScriptAccess="always" allowFullScreen="true" flashvars="fake=1" name="viddler" ></embed> </object>

But this does.
<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/18908510" width="800" height="450" frameborder="0"></iframe>

In the first example (with object) the video is to heigh. Doesnt crop.

See the differents in ie7 and chrome when resizing the browser.

Any update on this issue?

I took a decent stab at this and came up null. It appears to be an object vs. padding only in IE7. I'll keep poking at it and see if I can come up with something, but it might just not work perfectly in IE7.

@iamrane Doing triage today. I'm not sure if this issue should remain open. Your Codepen example doesn't seem to exist anymore. Since you filed this, we've reworked how double object embeds a bit, and I wonder if the issue was solved then. Also recommend using the latest jQuery. Please reopen if problem persists.
