    Default 3D Qt Browser Plugin

    Hi,

    I'm new to Qt. I asked this yesterday in Qt Programming, but i think it's the wrong forum.

    I heard the new FF3 is rewritten with Qt. So it shouldn't be a problem to do a plugin like this with Qt:

    http://www.quakelive.com

    I would like to know if there is anything in progress on that?
    If you have some suggestions on how to do this, please post them!
    In context to this i found
    http://www.qtsoftware.com/products/a...tbrowserplugin

    Has anybody expirience and a working browser with this plugin?

    Best Regards
    Ron

    Please consider that not everybody knows what is "quakelive", I only see a regular webpage.

    Ok, sorry on that.

    Quakelive is an online 3D Shooter, which runs through a browser and obvisiously has full openGL support.

    So my question is, if it's possible with Qt, to have something like wolfenQt with openGL support in a browser?

    Isn't this quakelive implemented in flash? If not then it's probably an ActiveX component or a browser plugin. Both of these technologies can be developed using Qt although be aware that they have nothing in common with World Wide Web apart the fact that they are triggered from within a browser window. You could run them as stand-alone applications just as well.

    No, it's not flash. It's based on browser plugins.

    Thx for the answer.

    From what I read the browser plugin is just a simple downloader for the proper application that gets downloaded during the registration and initialization process. Then the proper app takes over, even if it's embedded inside the browser plugin area.

    Ok,

    thx.

    I think sooner or later, we'll find a bunch of websites with Qt widgets embedded in them.
    I'm really interesting where this is going.

    A nice article about i found here

    http://doc.trolltech.com/qq/qq26-webplugin.html

    , but i can't find the csv plugin to see the tables in Firefox3 and with QtWeb it doesn't work too.

    Hm maybe I've overseen something...
