There's an old patch that allows NPAPI plugins with DirectFB
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36171
But it's very Flash oriented, not sure it would work with anything else. It would definitely not work without DirectFB.
The problem with NPAPI is that the plugins themselves usually need XiD etc. to be passed to them from WebKit; It's not clear what NPAPI should be passing in the case of Qt embedded, and what the plugin is expected to do with that information.

No'am

Hi

  I also have the same question. I know that according to the documentation It is not possible, but is there any hack/patch to do this?

Thanks,
 Sunny.

Hi all,
      I have a NPAPI plugin and it works well with QT Webview on Ubuntu PC.
I cross compile the plugin and QT browser to freescale imx51, put the plugin so
under ~/.mozilla/plugins, but QT Webview can not load the plugin.
     Does embedded QT Webkit support NPAPI plugins?  If so, what should i do
to load the plugin? Thanks!

Kong.
