Category:Plugins

This category is about Netscape-style plugins, most commonly used in Firefox and Mozilla Suite

A plugin is a piece of software that is used to extend the functionality of a software application. They are used by all sophisticated Web browsers to display content which they do not natively understand, such as Flash and Java applets. Firefox and the Mozilla Suite support these and other plugins, thus enabling the user to experience a wide range of media currently available on the Web, including sound, video and games.

A major source of information about plugins in Firefox and the Mozilla Suite is PluginDoc.
