just wanted to say that if you want a plugin of java in mozilla then you dont have to copy the plugin from the jre directory...instead you have to make a symbolic link...you can read up on this at:http://plugindoc.mozdev.org. just do: ln -s /fullpathtoplugin/libjavaplugin.so /mozilla_plugin_directory
giving the full path to the java plugin is important even if you are in the direcory where the plugin is located. hope this helps. --Rishabh -- Rishabh Manocha http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/rmanocha **********Your Quote for the day********** The German originates it, the French imitate it and the Englishman exploits it German saying ****************************************** On Wed, 3 Mar 2004, Sandip Bhattacharya wrote: > Prashant Kulkarni wrote: > > I have been trying to get the JAVA VM plugin setup but have not been successful. > > The steps I've done are as follows:- > > 1.
