Name

ARCHIVE — NN n/a IE n/a HTML 4

Synopsis

ARCHIVE=”URLList"

Optional

A space-delimited list of URLs of files that support the loading and running of the OBJECT element. By explicitly specifying the files in the ARCHIVE attribute, the browser doesn’t have to wait for the supporting files to be called by the content running in the OBJECT element. Instead, the supporting files can be downloaded simultaneously with the primary content. The ARCHIVE attribute may also include URLs assigned to the CLASSID or DATA attributes, but one of these two attributes still needs to point to the primary content URL.

Example

<OBJECT ... ARCHIVE=" /images/anim3.gif /images/anim4.gif"></OBJECT>

Value

A complete or relative URL.

Default

None.
