The easiest way to make simple calls back to your javascript from your
plugin is to use the NPN_GetURL function and make
"javascript:function_name(params)" to "_self" as in:
const char *szJS = "javascript:test_func('data here', 'you could use
sprintf to build this string')";
NPN_GetURL(m_Instance, szJS, "_self");
since URLs that start with 'javascript:function_name()' call code and
not load a new page. That was a big slap in the forehead moment for me
once I realized that. That should get you by unless you want to send
back more complex data.
