Using mozilla plugin with other browsers (opera)
Posted: 24 Jun 2005 14:55
Is the mozilla plugin meant to be useable with other browsers?
I have tried it in Opera, and it plays back video and audio if the url is passed in the <embed> element, and AutoStart is enabled, so the plugin is obviously installed, but the problem is that none of the controls actually work -- a button such as:
gives the following JS errors:
I have also tried using getElementById("video1") to retrieve the VLC plugin object, and this returns an HTMLEmbedElement, but still the calling any action on this object fails. with the same error.
Any suggestions (apart from Use Firefox!
)[/code]

Code: Select all
<input type="button" value="Play" onclick="document.video1.play();" />
Code: Select all
Event thread: click
Error:
