[webkit-dev] Pushing data to plugin

[Jack Wootton]

The functions you mention are NPP functions, which mean they are
implemented by the plugin and invoked by the browser.  this is the
opposite of what my post was about.  I am looking for functions that
are implemented by the browser and can be called by the plugin to send
data to the web page.

NPP_Invoke only allows for data to be transferred back to the webpage
after a javascript function first invoked a function on the plugin.

I think the Browser has a few functions which  may help though.  I
think my options are:

NPN_GetURL

Or

NPN_NewStream -> NPN_Write -> NPN_DestroyStream

Does anyone have any experience with these functions?  I am trying to
use them but am getting link errors.  Which library to i need to link
against to use them?

Cheers,
Jack
