           Summary: Documentation does not specify load order of plug-ins
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Plug-ins
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: simX_other at mac.com
                CC: mrowe at apple.com


Summary: The WebKit Plugin documentation does not specify the order in which
plug-ins will load.  This load order is important if there are two plug-ins
which can load content with the same mime type.


Steps to Reproduce:

1.  Go to
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/InternetWeb/Conceptual/WebKit_PluginProgTopic/WebKitPluginTopics.html

2.  Navigate through all the pages of the documentation.  Note that there is
nowhere where it specifies how the load order of plug-ins is determined, and
how to tell which of two plug-ins will load a given mime type if they both are
capable of displaying that content.


Expected Results: I expect the WebKit Plugin documentation to specify how
WebKit determines load order of plug-ins.


Actual Results: No specification of plug-in load order exists in the
documentation.


Regression: No specification has ever been documented, AFAIK.
