No, my project wasn't to create mozilla plugins. It was to enabled
mozilla plugins to run outside mozilla, but in a Delphi/Lazarus
program.  We needed to have a cross-platform Flash component running
inside our applications. Like an embedded ActiveX flash component in
Delphi - for for Linux and Windows platforms.

This is what I created, but I was pulled off the project, because we
decided to implement a CGI application instead and simply use a web
browser to run that section of our program.

I haven't completed the project, but the last time (some three years
back) I managed to get Flash and Acrobat browser plugin embedded in a
Lazarus application. Linux support was not working yet. Source code is
available on SourceForge. Hopefully some day I'll have the time to
complete that project. It has the potential to run any mozilla plugin
inside a GUI application, which will be very cool. :-)
