Appendix D: RX Netscape Navigator Plug-in
Name
libxrx: RX Netscape Navigator Plugin
Description
The RX Plugin may be used with Netscape Navigator (3.0 or later) to interpret documents in the RX
MIME type format and start remote applications.
The RX Plugin reads an RX document, from which it gets the list of services the application wants to
use. Based on this information, the RX Plugin sets the various requested services, including creating
authorization keys. It then passes the relevant data, such as the X display name, to the application
through an HTTP GET request of the associated CGI script. The Web server then executes the CGI
script to start the application. The client runs on the web server host connected to your X server. In
addition when the RX document is used within the <embed> tag (a Netscape extension to HTML), the
RX Plugin uses the XC-APPGROUP extension, to cause the remote application to be embedded within
the browser page from which it was launched.
Installation
To install the RX Plugin so that Netscape Navigator can use it, copy the file named
/usr/lib/X11R6/libxrx.6.3 to either /usr/local/lib/netscape/plugins or $HOME/.netscape/plugins.
If you have configured Netscape Navigator to use the RX helper program (xrx), you must reconfigure it.
Generally you simply need to remove or comment out the line you may have previously added in your
mailcap file to use the RX helper program. Otherwise the plugin will not be enabled. (The usual
comment character for mailcap is #.)
