Description Bill Abt 2008-10-23 09:31:16 PDT
I know this is a somewhat unusual situation but we have a WebKit based plug-in that we embed inside Safari.  This plug-in works fine except for the fact that the embedded webkit browser plug-in appears to prevent any mouseover or hover events from occurring.

To reproduce:

1) Build the attached Xcode project (reproduction material, a slimmed down version of our plug-in).
2) Copy or link to "~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins".
3) Using the "Safari" executable, execute the program.
4) When the page loads, click the load button.
5) This will visit http://www.javascriptkit.com/dhtmltutors/cssimage.shtml in the plug-in.
6) Move mouse cursor over JavaScript image - the image should change opacity.
7) Move mouse over "Browser Compatibility" link - a popup should be shown.
8) Move mouse over "JavaScript Kit" menu on left of page - the highlight should follow mouse.
9) Steps 6,7 and 8 do not perform as expected.

Visiting the same page normally in Safari gets the proper and expected results.

NPAPI plugin and Webkit Plugin support has been removed from Safari. Can this be marked as "RESOLVED WONTFIX". Thanks!
Comment 5 Alexey Proskuryakov 2022-06-23 18:29:23 PDT
I think that this is about WebKit plugins, not NPAPI. Support for those was removed even earlier.
