how to make java work on firefox 1.0(not PR)??

[sheds]

Both of your paths could be different, firefox's and java's, what i do that usually works is to go to each directory, run pwd and copy the entire route you get as a result and paste it on the terminal, along with the plugin's file at the end.

I am using FireFox, and Java 1.4.2_05. It seems to work some of the time, but not all of the time. For instance, when I use java.sun.com's Test Your Java VM applet, it works just fine, but when I try to log on to Oracle, it FireFox keeps telling me that I need to install the proper plugin. Linking the /[java dir]/plugins/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so to /home/me/firefox/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so

DD,

I use FireFox and Mozilla with Java. My suggestion to you is to uninstall ff, then install it to the /usr/lib directory. From there, link to the plugin to the plugins directory.

Let us know if that works.

i have unistalled firefox and i have re-installed it under /usr/lib/firefox.
I have created the link with the command

ln -s /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_05/jre/plugin/i386/libjavaplugin_oji.so

into the firefox directory.
Now every it dosen'tWhe work anymore every times i try to launch firefox i get the error message:

INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: No manager for initializing factory?

System error?:: Success

however when i type the command

ls

the link is no more in red like when i create the link in a othe directory(es. [my home]/firefix) what's happening?

When i delete the link everithing work again(except java ).
What is the problem now?
The things are going even more worse and not better

i have unistalled firefox and i have re-installed it under /usr/lib/firefox.
I have created the link with the command

ln -s /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_05/jre/plugin/i386/njavaplugin_oji.so

into the firefox directory.

Remember you have to indicate the directory of firefox too. I suppose in your case you are missing the /usr/lib/firefox/plugins path. Try it like this:

ln -s /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_05/jre/plugin/i386/njavaplugin_oji.so /usr/lib/firefox/plugins
