Yes, probably one of those things that seemed funny at the time (and no I wasn't drunk or jacked up on caffeine), maybe just a tired-and-low-IQ-state.. Moderators are free to delete this thread, My profuse apologies to the higher ntelligence of this community :)
I think i have a bug to report to the Mozilla foundation. Not about the embedded problem, no, but about their upgrades. I was running Seamonkey version 2.1, while the current is 2.10. Of course, 2.1 == 2.10, right? Nope. 2.10 is 9 releases later. However, it wasn't updating automatically because the numeric equivalency of the two releases numbers was the same.
I did a manual update to 2.10 and now i'm seeing embedded objects again.
My dose of silliness last week was to yell at a rabbit i saw on the side of the road while driving home, "watch out bunny! i've got a hrududu!" That was probably sillier than the animation.
"lol, no worries ... but are you SURE you weren't drunk? =)"
Nope, as stated earlier, just tired.-- the "giddy" type of tired where one one's brain neurons are misfiring in a kind of regression to prepubescence :D
