[Konqueror] Digital signature on the web-forms

Hi

I just want to now what could be the simplest way to resolve my problem. Here it is:

I have Konqueror and a web-interface to some service, containing dfferent web-forms, and I want to generate a digital signature of the data submitted in a form. I have a cryptographic library and i'd like to call its functions from c++ code. Ideally, this must be then invoked from JavaScript from the web-page (as it is done in Microsoft CAPICOM)

afaics, I can write a plug-in to Konqueror. Can this plug-in access the data in the webform? How can it be invoked? Only vby pressing a toolbar button?

Or should I write a Netscape plug-in?

Thanks!

A plugin can definitely be accessed from JavaScript, for example KMPlayer offers the LiveConnect extension when embedded in KHTML.

However the best target for such in-depth questions would be the mailinglist kfm-devel, which is the main KHTML/Konqueror developer mailinglist.
