Iframes en XHTML 1.1

[PWT26]

Hola, estoy programando una página web en XHTML 1.1, y cuando le pongo un iframe, no me valida.

Tengo entendido que este tipo de etiquetas ya no se usan, ¿sustituyo el iframe por <object>? El iframe que quiero insertar es un mapa de Google Maps.

¿a que te refieres con que no te valida?

hasta donde sé en la api de google maps no hace falta crear un iframe, si es que la api lo usa, la misma lo crea, todo se controla con su api JS

en el caso de los frames, prácticamente no se usan, pero los iframes es otra historia y realmente dudo que los deprecien, al menos hasta que HTML5 esté mucho más consolidado, realmente no falta mucho.

Paso el código por el validador de la W3C y me da sólo dos errores, los siguientes:

Line 43, Column 13: there is no attribute "src"

<iframe src="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&amp;source=embed&amp;hl=ca&amp;geo…

You have used the attribute named above in your document, but the document type you are using does not support that attribute for this element. This error is often caused by incorrect use of the "Strict" document type with a document that uses frames (e.g. you must use the "Transitional" document type to get the "target" attribute), or by using vendor proprietary extensions such as "marginheight" (this is usually fixed by using CSS to achieve the desired effect instead).

This error may also result if the element itself is not supported in the document type you are using, as an undefined element will have no supported attributes; in this case, see the element-undefined error message for further information.

How to fix: check the spelling and case of the element and attribute, (Remember XHTML is all lower-case) and/or check that they are both allowed in the chosen document type, and/or use CSS instead of this attribute. If you received this error when using the <embed> element to incorporate flash media in a Web page, see the FAQ item on valid flash.

You have used the element named above in your document, but the document type you are using does not define an element of that name. This error is often caused by:
incorrect use of the "Strict" document type with a document that uses frames (e.g. you must use the "Frameset" document type to get the "<frameset>" element),
by using vendor proprietary extensions such as "<spacer>" or "<marquee>" (this is usually fixed by using CSS to achieve the desired effect instead).
by using upper-case tags in XHTML (in XHTML attributes and elements must be all lower-case).

buenas...

en xhtml1.1 no existe el elemento <iframe>. piensalo de esta forma, si xhtml1 strict no permite <iframe>, menos aun las subsiguientes versiones.

¿Hay alguna alternativa para poner los mapas interactivos de Google Maps en mi página? ¿Usando object?
