Details

If NPP_WriteReady(NPP instance, NPStream stream) returns a size less then 8192 (8k) then Netscape 6.0 is passing bad values to the NPP_Write(NPP instance, NPStream stream, int32 offset, int32 len, void *buffer ) call. It passes a correct len, a correct offset, but an incorrect buffer pointer. By changing our maxbuffer size returned by NPP_WriteReady() to 8K from 4K our plug-in now works. This is still a bug in Netscape 6.0.
Do you see this problem in current Mozilla builds as well as Netscape 6.0?

Not if you add the testcase keyword, they won't :-) That flags bugs which have one already. Gerv
