Summary <object> tag with classid fires onbeforeload but doesn't load anything

Created attachment 120889 [details] Contains an `<object>` with a `classid` that won't load When an `<object>` tag has a `<param name="movie">` inside of it, it will at some point fire an `onbeforeload` event. However, if it also has a `classid` attribute, it will not actually load anything. To reproduce, simply open the attached file. ==EXPECTED RESULT== The movie should either load or not load; but in case WebKit aborts the load, it shouldn't fire the `beforeload` event in the first place. ==ACTUAL RESULT== The movie doesn't load but the `beforeload` event is triggered. The Network tab of the Inspector shows that no actual request was performed. Removing the `classid` attribute will enable the movie to load. ==ADDITIONAL INFOS== This may or may not be the same issue as bug #44575: in case there's an `<embed>` inside the `<object>`, a `beforeload` event for the same content will be fired twice.
