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.

Developer documentation isn't handled by the WebKit project. You should file a bug report against the documentation at <http://bugreport.apple.com/>.
