This is untested, but something like this should work:
// only do this if it's IE
if( $.browser.msie )
$("embed object")
.each( function (){
// get the current item
var o = $(this);
// make a copy after the original
o.after(o.html());
} )
// remove the original
.remove();
This should just take any embed/object tag, make a copy of it after the
current tag and then remove the original.
As long as the embed/object tag is written via scripting, the "click to
activate" issue should go away.
