POIs a a-href around an object (ie. flash) just a bad idea or is there actually a standard about how a click on such an object has to be handled?

    <p>I was having this discussion with one of my colleagues. He created a piece of code that put an a-href around an object where a flash is to be loaded. When I saw this I almost cried out and told him to use the clickTag instead. </p> <p>He told me that it works fine with the a-href. I checked it out, and the code worked fine in ie6-8 and firefox (all having flashplayer 9 or 10 installed). </p> <p>Since I <strong>KNEW</strong> that its a really bad idea to use a-href I did a little research about why not to use it.</p> <p>From there I checked out the standards (<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/objects.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/objects.html</a>) and googled around. </p> <p>But I did not find any explanation why it should or should not work (I know sometimes it does not work). </p> <p>We ended up with a solution to use both - the surrounding a-href and passed the clickTag (fyi: we do not know what kind of swf will be displayed since it comes from a cms).</p> <p>Why does the a-href/flash sometimes work and sometimes it does not and what would be the "standard" way to do something like that? What about other included objects (svg/movie/audio/..?) Is there a standard that defines how such things (as clicks on embedded objects like flash or a media player) are handled (ie. the javascript way to stop propagating the click event)?</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
