FF3.0.1, I have several JRE installed (Sun, IcedTea). Fails to detect the JRE. 
Also, the font size in the green button is so small that is is illegible (I 
had to zoom in to around 140% to read it). Also, message in the Status Bar 
is "Applet started".

Opera 9.51 works, detects the JRE (seems to need to run the applet though). 
Also the text is larger and readable at 100%. Debugging text reads:

Liveconnect version: 1.7.0-internal
ParseFloat conversion: 1.7

Konqueror works. Text is legible as well. Only debugging text reads "Writing 
Applet".

Epiphany fails. Not even your debugging text. However, text size is legible.

Those are all the browsers I have available (all under Mandriva Linux 2008.1, 
KDE).

Seems that with Opera and Konqueror, the IcedTea Java is detected correctly, 
since the info says that the JRE is "1.7.0", which is the Iced Tea version 
number (my Sun installation is 1.6.x).
