The best way to program a plugin for multiple browsers
I was wondering what is the best way to code a browser plugin that targets multiple browsers.
Due to the fact that each browser uses different ways to implement plugins, there must be a library or something with basic functionality and a wrapper for each browser. So, to be more precise, which language should the library be programmed from?
The plugin should implement such features as: fetching files from another server (via SSH) and playing sound.

It's all about common denominators when you do cross platform stuff. You need to choose what you know will work for all of your goals. This will require some research on your part. I know this answer is a bit vague, but you are not specifying exactly which list of browsers you want to support. Is it just Firefox, IE and Safari? Opera too? These are the things you should be thinking about.
However, it is best to choose a language that is supported by each browser you want to target.
