Use of object tag for inline pdf display in html

Planning to use Object tag to display pdf file inline in HTML file. Is this recommended? Or are there any pitfall for this approach; anyone can point out e.g. Browser compatibility, Security

Totally agree with your assessment. I was going in same direction.. If this is a standard feature than it should be supported by simple javascript.. It looks like it is supported by all the browser too.. I strongly feel this is good feature to leverage.. Thanks again for you response
