-<p> <!-- index Netscape --><a name="Netscape"></a>
-<p> The TQt Netscape Plugin software makes it easy to write browser plugins
-that can be used on both Unix/Linux and MS-Windows, in Netscape,
-Mozilla, and any other web browser supporting Netscape's LiveConnect
-protocol. Modern versions of MSIE do not support this protocol.
-
-<p> <h2> Information
-</h2>
-<a name="1"></a><p> The Netscape Plugin Extension consists of the follow classes:
-<ul>
-<li> <a href="tqnplugin.html">TQNPlugin</a>
-<li> <a href="tqnpinstance.html">TQNPInstance</a>
-<li> <a href="tqnpwidget.html">TQNPWidget</a>
-<li> <a href="tqnpstream.html">TQNPStream</a>
-</ul>
-<p> <h2> How-to
-</h2>
-<a name="2"></a><p> <ol type=1>
-<li> Download the
-<a href="http://home.netscape.com/comprod/development_partners/plugin_api/index.html">Plugin SDK from Netscape</a>, and copy the following files from there to
-<tt>$TQTDIR/extensions/nsplugin/src</tt>
-<ul>
-<li> <tt>common/npwin.cpp</tt>
-<li> <tt>common/npunix.c</tt>
-<li> <tt>include/npapi.h</tt>
-<li> <tt>include/npupp.h</tt>
-<li> <tt>include/jri.h</tt>
-<li> <tt>include/jri_md.h</tt>
-<li> <tt>include/jritypes.h</tt>
-</ul>
-<li> Build the Netscape Plugin extension library, found in the
-<tt>extensions/nsplugin/src</tt> directory of your TQt distribution.
-This produces a static library to be linked with your plugin code.
-<li> Read the <a href="tqnplugin.html">plugin class documentation</a>, and
-examine the <a href="nsplugin-examples.html">example plugins</a>.
-<li> Do most of your development as a stand-alone TQt application - debugging
-Netscape Plugins is cumbersome. You may want to use <tt>signal(2)</tt>
-in your plugin to enable core-dumps if your browser disables them.
-<li> Note the platform-specific build steps below.
-<li> Read about the raw plugin interface
-<a href="http://developer.netscape.com/docs/manuals/communicator/plugin/index.htm">in Netscape's handbook.</a>
-<li> If files viewed by a plugin are provided by an HTTP server
-(using a <a href="http://...">http://...</a> URL) then
-the server must be configured to send the correct MIME type
-for the file, e.g. by editing Apache's <tt>mime.types</tt> file.
-If the files are viewed via a <a href="file://...">//...</a>
-URL, then the browser will use the filename extension to decide
-the file type (and hence the plugin to load) - the user may need
-to set the filename extension in the Helpers or Applications
-section of their browser preferences.
-</ol>
-<p> <h3> Building under X11
-</h3>
-<a name="2-1"></a><p> <ul>
-<li> The Makefiles in the examples are appropriate for UNIX/X11.
-<li> The user must install the resulting Shared Object in the Plugins
-directory of the browser.
-</ul>
-<p> <h3> Building under Windows
-</h3>
-<a name="2-2"></a><p> <ul>
-<li> For Netscape plugins to work, TQt needs to be in the system DLL
-path or be compiled into the plugin as a static library.
-<li> Plugins must be named <tt>np</tt><em>name</em><tt>.dll</tt>,
-or the browser will ignore them.
-<li> The link step must include:
-<ul>
-<li> <tt>/def:</tt><em>name</em><tt>.def</tt>
-<li> <tt>/dll</tt>
-<li> a compiled resource file defining the
-file/MIME types accepted by the plugin.
-</ul>
-<li> The user must install the resulting DLL in the Plugins directory
-of the browser.
-</ul>
-<p> <h2> Known Bugs and Limitations
-</h2>
-<a name="3"></a><p> The TQt-based LiveConnect Plugin binding code has a number of bugs and
-limitations, but is sufficiently stable for many production
-applications.
-<p> <ul>
-<li> Keyboard input only works in secondary windows (e.g. dialogs created by the plugin).
-<li> You should not expect modality between the plugin and the browser to work.
-<li> Netscape 4.78 on Unix/X11 tends to terminate with a bus error.
-<li> Opaque resize behaviour is erratic due to browser behavior.
-</ul>
