| You're right, i imagine you can't access the whole page from a plugin, but you could try the class posing alternative if you want to insert some code in the application...although this is not the best option available to you i guess, and it makes the 'plugin' available to Objective-C applications only... furthermore, safari already subclasses some WebKit classes, omniweb too i think, maybe a lot more, so this could be a pain to make your plugin work everywhere.

thanks for these suggestions.
I'm not sure that I made this point clear enough, but I don't want to use a webview in my own program. I want to write a plugin for Safari (optionally OmniWeb and others) that changes the html content before Safari (OmniWeb, ...) renders it.
Basically I have no idea, if it is possible for a plugin to get every loaded page in the first place. It seems you have to register a MIME type or rely on <embed> tags.

So, maybe you could try altering the DOM tree once it's loaded, but I don't know if it is possible actually.... I would give a look at this and how one edits the html in a webview.

I would like to build a plug-in, that parses and changes a html page before WebKit displays it. In particular I would like to scan for keywords and change them to a hyperlink. This should work on any (well, most...) websites out in the wild.
Is that possible at all with WebKit browsers?
Any tips on where to start reading for a steep learning curve? (I already read "Web Kit Plug-in Programming Topics" and had a look into "Web Kit Objective-C Programming Guide")
