NPAPI difference between Firefox and chrome

Hi,
I'm writing some plugin; I got Gesko SDK from mozilla site; After build it successfully loaded and working on Firefox;
I tried to load and execute it with chrome; I found that chrome cannot load plugin; After some debugging I found that plroblem in function table structures - size of structures is not the same in firefox and chrome;
Additional search bring me to a difference - it is in alignment; Firefox and Gesko using 32 bit alignment/packaging, and chrome use 8 bit alignment/packaging;
So, my questions are:
-is it bug of chrome or firefox?
-when will it be fixed?
-I did not work with chrome previously; from when is this build difference?

This forum is geared toward Firefox end user support, not toward developers, so you may not get an answer from anyone who knows exactly what you are talking about. Not to sound rude, but if your plugin is working in Firefox, but not in Chrome wouldn't it make sense to ask a Google support forum about your Firefox plugin not working in Chrome?
As far as 8-bit vs. 32-bit, AFAIK 8-bit operating systems and programs date back like 20 years, so I doubt if Google is using 8-bit in its' plugins. But that would best be addressed by someone familiar with Chrome development and plugins.

  • What is the difference between Firefox and Internet Explorer?

    I'm an older woman and it's hard for me to keep up with all the new technology these days. Can someone please explain the difference between Firefox and Internet Explorer? Which one is better to use? Many thanks for your help.

    Firefox, Chrome and Internet explorer are all types of Browser; for use (mainly) on the internet, other modern browsers are Safari & Opera.
    Just to confuse things slightly, Windows Explorer, is the name of the software that is usually used to look at content (files & folders) on Windows PCs.
    Maybe these articles will help

  • What is the difference between Firefox and Firefox os please. I have a Samsung galaxy s3 mini what one would you recommend would be better for my phone

    What is the difference between Firefox and Firefox os, and what one is better for the Samsung galaxy s3 mini, Please could you recommend which one is the best and most suitable for my phone please. Many thanks Michelle Petch

    Thank you for your question.
    Firefox is basically a browser.And Firefox OS is an Operating System.You can install Firefox in your SGS3 just like an android application.But if you want Firefox operating system on it. then you have to flash the ported Firefox OS on your device. Then it will be a completely different standalone operating system.you cannot install android applications on it.
    To read more technical difference read:
    Firefox OS:

    Hope this clears your query.Thank you

  • Difference between Firefox and Safari when viewing iWeb created content.

    Greeting Mac fans,
    I've noticed that my iWeb pages load 2-3 times faster when viewed in Firefox than Safari. I find this a little suprising.
    Also, my hit counter shows when the page is displayed in Firefox, but not in Safari.
    Any ideas?
    All content was created using iWeb and is hosted at my dotmac account. I have a domain name and I'm also using "masked URL fowarding"
    Peace

    There are two things that I think are at play
    here...
    First, the difference in loading times between
    FireFox and Safari.... I haven't noticed that huge of
    a difference myself, but what I have noticed is that
    FireFox is much faster at pulling up cached
    material....or maybe figuring out whether to pull
    from cache vs. anew. I've noticed that FireFox also
    hangs on to cached material more tenaciously than
    Safari, meaning that sometimes I have to go in and
    empty FireFox's cache in order to see something
    update...I have to do this much more often in FireFox
    than Safari.
    Second, about your counters. If you turn your
    masking off from your domain forwarding, you .Mac
    counters will be visible to all. Using masking will
    make them invisible to certain browsers under certain
    conditions.
    James, I guess I should download and use Firefox, but remember feeling burned the last time I did. I downloaded it, and soon after, things went awry with my computer. I am hoping that the were unrelated events, since Leo Laporte, the KFI techie guru, also recommends using Firefox for various reasons. He says that it is very safe because, basically, it is "dumb" (his words). But he meant that it's lack of bells and whistles made it go very fast, and made it avoid all the problems of Internet Explorer.

  • What is difference between Firefox OS and Android or iOS?

    What is difference between Firefox OS and Android or iOS?

    kingofhawks, Firefox os is open source, offers the ability of do not track and has many great customization options. It is currently however targeted at 3rd world countries and/ or underdeveloped countries so it isn't recommended to use this if you're use to using Android and iOS at this moment. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to ask.
    Thanks

  • What's the difference between Mozilla and Firefox

    what's the difference between MOZILLA and FIREFOX?

    Firefox doesn't include the SeaMonkey suite.<br />
    SeaMonkey is a separate program (not just a browser, but a suite) maintained outside the Mozilla Corporation.
    From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SeaMonkey
    <blockquote>SeaMonkey is a free and open source[3] cross-platform Internet suite.<br />
    It is the continuation of the former Mozilla Application Suite, based on the same source code.<br />
    <br />
    The development of SeaMonkey is community-driven, in contrast to the Mozilla Application Suite, which until its last released version (1.7.13) was governed by the Mozilla Foundation. The new project-leading group is the SeaMonkey Council.

  • What is the difference between aurora and firefox browsers?

    What is the difference between Firefox 9 and Aurora? Which one performs better?

    The Aurora builds are for testing code for future Firefox version. The Nightly builds (currently Firefox 12) always get the latest changes and patches first and such changes bubble down to other Firefox versions with a delay of about six weeks, first to the Aurora channel (currently Firefox 11) and then another 6 weeks later to the Beta channel (currently Firefox 10) that then gets the next release (Beta goes to release at the end of January). Normal users should always stay on the release channel.

  • What's the difference between Aurora and Beta?

    what's the difference between Aurora and Beta?

    The difference between Beta and Aurora is '''1'''. If you have to ask what Aurora is, you shouldn't use it.
    The current release version is Firefox 6.0, the Beta is 7.0, Aurora is 8.0, and Nightly is 9.0.
    When Firefox 7.0 is released in 4 weeks, 8.0 will be the Beta version, Aurora will be 9.0, and the cutting edge Nightly development version will be 10.0.

  • Flash Player constantly crashes on Firefox and Chrome, works on Safari

    Hello!
    This is my first time posting here. I've been working on this all day and have made NO progress.
    I'm on a Mac OS X 10.9.3 (this was also happening with 10.9.2, I applied the 10.9.3 update today hoping it would make difference).
    ANY version of Flash Player I've installed today has worked fine on Safari, and not worked on both Chrome and Firefox. I've uninstalled reinstalled both Firefox and Chrome many times. Both browsers are up to date (Chrome v34, Firefox v29). There are no logs or anything ever.
    The plugin runs for a little bit then dies. I've tried reverting to version 12, and version 11, neither made a difference. I've done the whole disable the pepper plugin with Chrome and had Chrome using the other one I had installed. No difference.
    I'm OUT of ideas and can't find any other information or help with this. PLEASE HELP!

    Your issue is distinct from the original poster's issue about a crash on Mac.  I've branched this out to a new thread so that we're not confusing everyone.
    Firefox on Win8 isn't very stable.  We're collaborating with Mozilla on improvements, and my test results with the daily development builds are really promising, but it will be a few more weeks before they actually make it to production releases.
    In the meantime, you're way better off using IE or Chrome. 

  • Whats the difference between bookmarks and favorites?

    <blockquote>Locking duplicate thread.<br>
    Please continue here: [[/questions/909148]]</blockquote>
    What is the difference between bookmarks and favorites? I use favorites, but only see instructions for bookmarks. I use windows 7 and all the folders and individual sites were listed together alphabetically. Now all the folders are listed together, and there are two different sections of alphabetized sites below that. Why? How do I get all the favorites listed together in alphabetical order?

    The term favorites, or favourites, is used by other browsers such as Internet Explorer, whereas Firefox uses the term bookmarks.
    The technology behind the two also differs somewhat, but it is still for instance possible to import favourites from IE to Firefox see
    * [[Importing favorites and other data from Internet Explorer]]
    Once the favourites are imported and appended to your bookmarks thay can be organised by dragging and dropping etc

    There is a null in java, but no NULL. null means no value. However, when assigning value, the following is different:Although the empty String has no special role. Null means, the referential type is not assigned (doesn't refer) to a specific object. The empty String is just another object though, so seeing it or pointing it out as something special when it actually isn't at all (no more special than new Integer(0) or new Object[0]) just adds to the confusion.

  • Difference between GUI_UPLOAD and WS_UPLOAD

    Hi,
    Please make me clear about the difference between GUI_UPLOAD and WS_UPLOAD. In which cases we need to use these modules...??
    Thanks,
    Satish

    I would suggest to always use the GUI_UPLOAD.  I say this because this is the function module which is used in the GUI_UPLOAD method of the class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES.   Really, you should probably use the class/method instead of the function module.
      data: filename type string.
      filename = p_file.
      call method cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_upload
             exporting
                  filename                = filename
                  filetype                = 'ASC'
             changing
                  data_tab                = iflatf
             exceptions
                  file_open_error         = 1
                  file_read_error         = 2
                  no_batch                = 3
                  gui_refuse_filetransfer = 4
                  no_authority            = 6
                  unknown_error           = 7

  • Difference between char and varchar, also the difference between varchar2

    Hi,
    Can anyone explain me the difference between char and varchar, and also the difference between varchar and varchar2...

    Varchar2 is variable width character data type, so if you define column with width 20 and insert only one character to tis column only, one character will be stored in database. Char is not variable width so when you define column with width 20 and insert one character to this column it will be right padded with 19 spaces to desired length, so you will store 20 characters in the dattabase (follow the example 1). Varchar data type from Oracle 9i is automaticlly promoted to varchar2 (follow example 2)
    Example 1:
    SQL> create table tchar(text1 char(10), text2 varchar2(10))
    2 /
    Table created.
    SQL> insert into tchar values('krystian','krystian')
    2 /
    1 row created.
    SQL> select text1, length(text1), text2, length(text2)
    2 from tchar
    3 /
    TEXT1 LENGTH(TEXT1) TEXT2 LENGTH(TEXT2)
    krystian 10 krystian 8
    Example 2:
    create table tvarchar(text varchar(10))
    SQL> select table_name,column_name,data_type
    2 from user_tab_columns
    3 where table_name = 'TVARCHAR'
    4 /
    TABLE_NAME COLUMN_NAME DATA_TYPE
    TVARCHAR TEXT VARCHAR2
