BURAN  At long last! An alternative has emerged for Intel Mac users! It's not as feature-laden, but it works.

TIM.DEHRING  Yes, that is because Netscape is not a Universal app, meaning it launches in Rosetta. Shocker here....so does the PDF plugin. Therefore, this plugin is not native to Universal apps unless we force them to open using Rosetta, which is kinda the point about wanting a Universal version of this plugin.

JCRAIG  This plugin used to receive regular updates, but since the Intel transition, nothing. It would be nice to know one way or the other if the developer intends to create an Intel or UB version. If the answer is no, that's fine, but just let us know so the speculating can end.

DGRIEP  The plugin will work for Firefox on my intel macbook if you go to Get Info for Firefox and then click the Open using Rosetta button.

Then the plugin runs through Rosetta and

works.

Now when I do this, the PDF Browser Plugin

works, but then I have some java problems

with Firefox, java animations don't work.

So beware.

TOMRAKEWELL  ... it cannot be that complicated to make this work with Safari/OmniWeb on intel Macs. But the developer does not even reply to messages. Is this plugin dead?

BLACKLINT  I'm guessing you have an older version of Firefox. PowerPC based apps (aka your old Firefox... you should download the latest one btw) can use the old plugin but native Intel compiles cannot (such as your Safari)
