Works great as a wallpaper but doesn't render java script when set as lock screen. #15

Hi, When setting this plugin as the Screen Locking "Wallpaper type" and providing a URL that would otherwise render content with Java script the javascript bit doesn't render. Example URL: https://rezmason.github.io/matrix/?skipIntro=false

Error observed in the journal:

Dec 02 14:44:46 darkstar kscreenlocker_greet[23808]: js: Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read property 'getExtension' of null
Dec 02 14:44:46 darkstar kscreenlocker_greet[23808]: js: Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read property 'getExtension' of null

Would it be possible to fix this?

Works fine for me:

Using Manjaro Linux 22.0.0 (kernel 6.0.8-1) and KDE Plasma 5.26.3 / KDE Frameworks 5.99.0 / Qt 5.15.7 on X11.

Yeah , this is running in the normal wallpaper mode - admittingly that's main purpose of the plugin. So yes it does work fine here. However, this plugin can also be chosen as the backend for Plasma's Lock screen: System Settings -> Workspace Behavior -> Screen Locking -> Appearance (Configure button) -> Wallpaper type -> HTMLWallpaper

When applied and the screen is locked the errors I provided earlier are logged to journal and the page doesn't render.

I'm using this in Fedora KDE Plasma 37.

Oh didn't know we can do that!
And got the same issue.

Using the plugin for lock screen is not one of the supported use-cases right now, as it always caused crashes on my machine. #6 tracks this feature request. I'll have another look at this, when considering a Plasma 6 version.
