<object>, possible to embed an Excel spreadsheet?

URL: http://www.acad.sunytccc.edu/instruc...t/mygrades.htm

As I read the spec, I need _either_ data= and type= _or_ classid=
and codetype=. I've tried it both ways and neither works. I googled,
but was overwhelmed with results and none of them seemed hopeful
(probably because I don't see how to frame a query specifically
enough).

Some enlightenment, please?

By the way, what am I trying to do is embed an Excel spreadsheet in
the Web page at the above URL. The URL of the spreadsheet is
http://www.acad.sunytccc.edu/instruc...t/mygrades.xls

Confusingly, lynx -dump -head returns a "404 not found" for the
spreadsheet, but when I type the spreadsheet's URL in the URL bar of
Mozilla 1.4, it gives me the normal save/open.cancel dialog. I've
got "Live HTTP Headers" add-in for Mozilla, but when it opens the
HTML page it doesn't show any headers for the XLS, and DOM inspector
doesn't show it under "objects" either.

Hi, it might be a simple solution but I do not see it. The problem is that I have the following file stored on my local harddrive. All references are URL to a remote computer. It is working, i.e. the code is not throwing an error (btw the field should link to other pages by clicking them). The strange behavior is, that I copy the file to the remote computer and execute it by typing http://www.smartframe.de/dumm.html (everybody

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
