Success!  OK, partial success.  I removed all trace of java from my

have it!

Thanks for everyone's help.
I still can't work out what's going on here.  I installed Netscape 7 and
the java works perfectly.  Mozilla and Galeon on the other hand list the
plugins, but they don't work.  Mozilla has lost certain setting that it
had, and is now exactly like the Netscape setup.  They must be sharing
something somewhere.

It doesn't make any sense at all

Anne,

They are indeed. They're both using the .mozilla directory. If you want
Netscape to appear as it's own app then create a new profile that you'll
use when running Netscape complete with it's own mail settings,
bookmarks and address book. That should straighten things out for you.

The whole thing is odd. You may remember that all of this started for me because I could not get the navigation tabs and links to work in Mozilla on some sites. After installing Netscape 7 I found that everything worked there, but there was no change to the problem in Mozilla.

Last night I found that Mozilla now displays all the tabs and links, though not all of the are active. I suppose this means that I have changed a setting somewhere that is affecting it, but for the life in me I don't know what!

Anne
well...you could always experiment with a fresh install of Mozilla. Uninstall the mozilla packages making sure you delete the dir and all the files therein in /usr/lib/mozilla-1.1, then do a fresh install of mozilla which you'll also want to create the symlink from the JDK package netscape java plugin to the /usr/lib/mozilla-1.1/plugins dir when you're finished and see what that does.

or...not. :)
