Netscape plugin support is only available on desktop platforms.
Since WebKit supports the Netscape Plugin API, CopperSpice applications can display Web pages that embed common plugins on platforms for which those plugins are available. To enable plugin support, the user must have the appropriate binary files for those plugins installed and the QWebSettings::PluginsEnabled attribute must be enabled for the application.
