Graeme, I'm trying to use the NPAPI Mozilla Plugin Framework with FreePascal and while searching for info about it I stumbled with a mailing list post that says you investigated about this:

"On The Lazarus mailing list Graeme if i remember correctly posted some links, he apparently already did an interface for it and it's working well, please ask there :)"

To refresh your mind, the project I'm talking about is part of this: http://www.paranoia.clara.net/mozilla_delphi_project.html and specifically this: https://www.mozdev.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=8708

My question is, have you created a mozilla plugin compilable with FreePascal?

No, my project wasn't to create mozilla plugins. It was to enabled mozilla plugins to run outside mozilla, but in a Delphi/Lazarus program. We needed to have a cross-platform Flash component running inside our applications. Like an embedded ActiveX flash component in Delphi - for for Linux and Windows platforms.

This is what I created, but I was pulled off the project, because we decided to implement a CGI application instead and simply use a web browser to run that section of our program.

I haven't completed the project, but the last time (some three years back) I managed to get Flash and Acrobat browser plugin embedded in a Lazarus application. Linux support was not working yet. Source code is available on SourceForge. Hopefully some day I'll have the time to complete that project. It has the potential to run any mozilla plugin inside a GUI application, which will be very cool. :-)

Regards,
