pluginUrl attribute (embed)

Browser support:
Sets the URL for installing a plug-in. If the embedded plug-in is not accessible on the client site, the URL can be used to download and install the required component by the browser.
Same as the pluginsPage attribute, use that for a standard cross-browser solution.
The embed tag is a non-standard tag in HTML but supported by all commonly used browsers.

Possible values:

String that sets the URL of the plugin. It can be an absolute or relative path as well. Relative paths are relative to the base URL. The base URL is the location of the current document, but it can be overridden by the base tag.
Default: this attribute has no default value.
