NPAPI and GOOGLE Chrome : MIME type of DLL

Question

What is MIME type of DLL that required to to set in following tag.

<embed id="pluginId" type="application/<MIME TYPE OF DLL>"

Do I need to make changes in DLL to set MIME type of DLL? I have read on forum, to set mime type in .rc file. VALUE "MIMEType", "application/myapp"

But how to do with vs 2008 DLL.

Also just an FYI, I have had much more consistant results with an object tag rather than an embed tag and highly recommend you use object and not embed — taxilian

Yes, the mimetype is set in the .rc file, which requires a recompile. To se the mimetype, put it in a STRING resource called MIMEType.
