From what I can remember, the original Eolas patent applied to the use of HTML object/embed tags to embed plugins directly within an HTML page - this was trivially easy to get around by using Javascript to write out the object/embed tags rather than having them in the HTML.
Follow up patents sounds bad, though. :-( Ian _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
