Mon 19 Jul 2010 08:33:42 PM UTC, comment #16: We need a 98% complete setting... As of revno #12316, the commands SetVariable, GetVariable, IsPlaying, PercentLoaded, Play, Rewind, TotalFrames, and StopPlay work. This only leaves calling remote methods, and supporting Pan/Zoom/SetZoomRect before being complete. |

Fri 21 May 2010 01:32:29 AM UTC, comment #15: Arg, there is no 95% complete menu item. As of revno #12193, the communication protocol is complete. XML messages in the documented Adobe format are sent between the plugin and the player. The player correctly parses the messages, All that is remaining is to call the methods, and to actually set the variables set by JavaScript. |

Mon 19 Apr 2010 09:46:48 PM UTC, comment #14: I've added the communication protocol, which is an XML based one. The Gnash implementation is based on documentation on the Adobe protocol, not that it probably matters. |

Fri 04 Apr 2008 03:36:18 PM UTC, comment #11: I'd suggest a simple XML based protocol so it can potentially be used from swf based applications as well for extra functionality. One thought is maybe this could be simpler if we write a Firefox extension to talk to Gnash. The extension would handle talking to JavaScript. |

Wed 30 Jan 2008 07:47:05 PM UTC, comment #6: Javascript pseudo URLs need splitting at 'javascript:', then it works fine. Youtube included, but it doesn't resize to fit the window.

Tue 15 Jan 2008 07:17:01 PM UTC, comment #3: Hooking into the gecko loop is fairly easy. At least on Linux, gecko uses glib, so you can just add a hook to the glib main loop (see glib docs).

Sat 17 Nov 2007 10:41:25 AM UTC, comment #1: Also the other way around is needed, which is allowing a process (for instance the plugin) to request the player process to do something, like setting variables from JavaScript. |

Sat 23 Sep 2006 04:13:31 PM UTC, original submission:
The gnash standalone process must request some operations to a browser, when available. In particular, getURL operations (with GET and POST method) must be externally requested.
