           Summary: When a plug-in is loaded by an <object> element that
                    does not specify a type attribute, the correct
                    parameters are not passed to the plug-in.
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Plug-ins
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: aestes at apple.com


Take the following snippet:

<object width="480" height="385">
    <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/oHg5SJYRHA0?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param>
    <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param>
    <param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param>
</object>

Safari will determine the MIME type of the resource from the Content-Type header and load the appropriate plug-in, but it will not pass the 'allowFullScreen' and 'allowscriptaccess' parameters to the plug-in. If type="application/x-shockwave-flash" is added as an attribute to the <object> element, the correct parameters will be passed to the plug-in.
