This is a web development question and probably not appropriate for this list, but: - If the plugin is windowed, consulting your favorite search engine for [iframe shim] will put you on the right track. - If the plugin supports windowless mode, it layers like a normal HTML element. E.g. see [flash wmode] for discussion of this for Flash. _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/webkit-dev
