Tag History
- What is it?
- This container tag is used in conjunction with the EMBED tag to
indicate content/HTML markup that will only appear if the browser does
not support the EMBED syntax. Browsers that DO support the EMBED tag
will ignore the contents of the NOEMBED tag.

Tips & Tricks
- There is ambiguity about whether the EMBED tag is a container or not.
If it is a container (which several references say it is) it would make
the content of the tag invisible to supporting browsers. Browsers that
do not support EMBED would thus be able to see the EMBED tag content.
This line of reasoning would seem to make the NOEMBED tag useless.
I personally do not yet know the answer to this yet so keep this
ambiguity in mind.
