  40    * HandleMessage() is a function that the browser calls when PostMessage()
  41    * is invoked on the DOM element for the module instance in JavaScript. Note
  42    * that PostMessage() in the JavaScript interface is asynchronous, meaning
  43    * JavaScript execution will not be blocked while HandleMessage() is
  44    * processing the message.
  45    *
  46    * @param[in] instance A <code>PP_Instance</code> identifying one instance
  47    * of a module.
  48    * @param[in] message A <code>PP_Var</code> which has been converted from a
  49    * JavaScript value. JavaScript array/object types are supported from Chrome
  50    * M29 onward. All JavaScript values are copied when passing them to the
  51    * plugin.
  52    *
  53    * When converting JavaScript arrays, any object properties whose name
  54    * is not an array index are ignored. When passing arrays and objects, the
  55    * entire reference graph will be converted and transferred. If the reference
  56    * graph has cycles, the message will not be sent and an error will be logged
  57    * to the console.
  58    *
  59    * The following JavaScript code invokes <code>HandleMessage</code>, passing
  60    * the module instance on which it was invoked, with <code>message</code>
  61    * being a string <code>PP_Var</code> containing "Hello world!"
  62    *
  63    * <strong>Example:</strong>
  64    *
  65    * @code
  66    *
  67    * <body>
  68    *   <object id="plugin"
  69    *           type="application/x-ppapi-postMessage-example"/>
  70    *   <script type="text/javascript">
  71    *     document.getElementById('plugin').postMessage("Hello world!");
