I had a similar problem with the Moz 1.2 I'm using on my unstable/testing system. The solution that was suggested to me here my a kind user was to get the 1.4 jdk compiled with gcc 3.2 and then I just copied over the java plugin. You can find the a Java 1.4 distribution, compiled with gcc 3.2, at ftp://metalab.unc.edu/pub/linux/devel/lang/java/blackdown/JDK-1.4.1/i386/01/ get the file j2re-1.4.1-01-linux-i586-gcc3.2.bin. Run it (it's a self-extracting shell-script) and then go into j2re1.4.1/plugin/i386/mozilla and copy javaplugin_oji.so to your mozilla plugin directory. Again, this is for Moz 1.2, not sure if it'll work with 1.3. Gary -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
