Ok. :)

* Intrinsice size
	http://www.w3.org/QA/2004/02/object/test-case-001.html 

So we can expect that the image will be displayed with its intrinsic 
size unfortunately it's not. Specifically because of

For example on

- Safari 1.2.4 (v125.12)
	not displayed with intrinsic size
- Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7.5) 
Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0
	Seems correct
- Opera Version	7.51, Build	1797, Platform	MacOS X
	Seems correct


* Fallback mechanism.
	http://www.w3.org/QA/2004/02/object/test-case-005.html 

When the first object is not available, the fallback mechanism applies 
and the User agent must render the content of the object, which is in 
this case a text.

- Safari 1.2.4 (v125.12)
	display a case with nothing except a file icon
- Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7.5) 
Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0
	Display the text which is right
		(but as a bizarre behaviour with regards the CSS of the object which 
is still displayed but without respecting the size of the box.)
- Opera Version	7.51, Build	1797, Platform	MacOS X
	display a big box with the Error page of W3C
