    Hello,

    I want to write a plugin for Mozilla/Netscape.

    Specifically, my requirement is like this. I want to launch Oracle
    Applications on a Linux desktop. Oracle Applications use the Oracle
    JInitiator to launch on a browzer. JInitiator is avaliable for only
    windows platform.

    JInitiator is essentially a JRE from Oracle, tuned for launching Oracle
    Applications. I want to write a plugin that spoofs JInitiator on Linux.
    My plugin will use the standard JRE instead of this special JRE. So when
    during applet download the browzer is supposed to call JInitiator, it
    should locate my plugin and use it.

    Can you please point me to some good tutorial on writing plugins for
    browzers? Please provide your comments on this strategy, or if you can
    find a better way of doing this.

    Regards
    Marmagya
