Hi, i have to develop a browser application which should be able to
read some local files, some html form fields and sign all of that with
a user certificate (from browser cert db, but later i'll need to sign
with a smartcard device).
For MSIE that seems solved by using CAPICOM. Seems solved for NS4.x
too, through crypto.signText.
About NS6.x and later, i have been reading about the Mozilla JSS
solution, which needs the additional installation of jss3.dll. It
would not be a real problem for us to install such dll (thought
potential clients are thousands, they must trust our application), but
i'd like to make sure there is no other way to solve my problem, as i
know jss is not intended to be used from applets. I've been looking
around SecClab component, which is great, but i do need platform
independence and compatibility through all mozilla versions, so i
don't think it's a solution for me.
Then, any other way to implement data signing from mozilla-based
browser??
Thanks in advance.
