Olariu,

I'm not sure about the latest release of WebKit, but there is a bug in the WebKit that comes installed with all Macs. This bug only effects Carbon (not Cocoa) applications that are embedding WebKit. It causes the double click problem you are seeing.

There are two workarounds that I know of.

1 - don't embed the .swf in an .html file, instead pass the .swf directly to the webview.

2. override the makeFirstResponder method of the NSView and manually pass the focus to your nsview/webview and then pass the event to it.

Workaround #1 is easy, but if the user installs Safari 3 Beta then they'll change their system Webkit and the double click bug will re-appear. Fantastic.

Workaround #2 can only be done in Cocoa, so you'll have to be doing quite a bit of bridging. I know of a person using wxWidgets who developed this workaround and got it to work, but I haven't been able to get anything like it to work for me.


Hope this helps,

Chris

Hi, I have to build am carbon application and the entire UI needs to be done in flash. First I embedded the Flash movie in an HTML document and load this document in a WebView contained in the carbon window. But I have problems getting and handling some mouse events in the flash movie. On the carbon-dev someone suggested me to look at Mozila/WebKit code and see how they load the Flash plugin in the application. I guess this is the best way to do what i have tot do. Can someone please assist me doing this.
Thank you,
Olariu Adrian Mihai.
