First, the object element is designed to be nested in order to help
browsers degrade gracefully. If a browser can’t display the outermost
object, it should try the next one and then the next one until it
finds one it can handle. Once it does find an object it can deal with,
it is supposed to ignore the rest.

Second, most major browsers fully support the object element. The big
exception is (surprise) Internet Explorer. IE6 displays all object
elements it can deal with—even if they’re nested—as well as rather
ugly, ghostly apparitions of the ones it can’t. Thankfully, IE7
doesn’t do the ghosts, but it unfortunately doesn’t favor the nested
objects if there’s a problem with the outer object. It just gives you
an error.

Third, Internet Explorer (up to and including version 7) implements
the object element in a non-standard way that makes other browsers
ignore it.

This is what I see - I see 2 versions of Object (one work one does
not) in IE. Nested them also don't work as mentioned above.
