Re: Help with java in firefox

[Jim Lynch]

Same thing with testing.  I installed the plugin three different ways 
and firefox still doesn't know about them. 
1. I clicked on the window that said "to install plugin click here" or 
words to that effect.  That put the .so file in /usr/local/xxx somewhere 
I believe.
2. I got the jre14 from Sun as the plugin faq suggested and followed the 
faq instructions.  I put the .so file in the "system" location per the 
instructions.
3.  I copied the .so file into my ~/.mozilla/plugins directory

None of those methods did a thing.

I thought I had java in firefox because I checked the enable java
box in preferences, but apparently not. I can't get a video loop
from NOAA to work, and the error message says I need a plugin for
'application/x-java-vm'. I tried to install plugin according to
instructions from the program firefox, but did not work. Is there
a .deb package that I can install? Is there an alternative way to
display video loops from NOAA web site?
I'm running Sarge on i686 box.
TIA
