Hi,
I am trying to register firefox plugins in MS Windows using the information that is provided in this link https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Gecko_Plugin_API_Reference/Plug-in_D... Plug-ins
I am installing my plugin in a folder other than {firefox}/plugins. I made a registry entry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software \MozillaPlugins. Now after I install the plugin I have to restart my browser or else the browser doesnt detect the specified plugin. I checked out unity3d plugin where it is getting installed and detected even without restarting the browser. Do I need to specify anything else other than what is there in the above specified link. And one more thing, it seems that on certain computers google chrome is able to load the plugin which I have registered for firefox. Does chrome also search for plugins from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software \MozillaPlugins ? If yes then why is it loading on all computers ?
Please let me know if there is any solution to my above queries.
