Last update on February 10 2024 11:41:47 (UTC/GMT +8 hours)

Solution:

HTML Code:

<!DOCTYPE html><!-- Declares the document type and version of HTML -->
<html><!-- Begins the HTML document -->
<head><!-- Contains metadata about the document -->
<meta charset="utf-8"><!-- Specifies the character encoding of the document -->
<title>How to define an embedded object</title><!-- Sets the title of the document -->
</head><!-- Ends the head section -->
<body><!-- Contains the content of the document -->
Object <!-- Displays text indicating the presence of an object -->
<object width="400" height="400" data="https://www.w3resource.com/html-css-exercise/basic/solution/phpdemo1.swf"><!-- Defines an embedded object with specified width, height, and data source -->
</object><!-- Ends the embedded object -->
</body><!-- Ends the body section -->
</html><!-- Ends the HTML document -->

Explanation:

The HTML document starts with a declaration of its type and version (<!DOCTYPE html>).
The <html> element encloses the entire HTML document.
The <head> section contains metadata about the document, such as character encoding and title.
The <meta charset="utf-8"> tag specifies the character encoding of the document as UTF-8.
The <title> tag sets the title of the document.
Inside the <body> section, the text "Object" is displayed, indicating the presence of an object.
The <object> element defines an embedded object with specified width, height, and data source.
The width and height attributes determine the dimensions of the embedded object.
The data attribute specifies the URL of the object to be embedded.
The HTML document is properly closed with the </html> tag.
