hi friends,
I am trying to use <embed> tag in my asp page to check for an xpcom
control. If found, i have to instantiate.
If not i have given the src and pluginspage urls correctly for
downloading and installing.
Now when i access my asp page on server. it gives install missing
plugin message and when i click on that, instead of automatic plugin
install, plugin finder service is invoked and it gives the following
message and asks me to do manual install.
"Unknown Plugin (application/x-xpinstall) Manual Install (button)."
Why does this message shown in first place.
Can someone give some pointers as to what change i need to do to make
automatic install work.
On the IIS server i have added the mimetype application/x-xpinstall
for .xpi files.
