Are you sure?  By default, 10.2 installed a 32 bit firefox because of
plugin issues.

10.3 by default installs a 64 bit browser and a wrapper plugin to allow
32 bit plugins to work with the 64 bit browser.  That wrapper does not
work though with a 32 bit java.

AFAIK, to use java in a 64 bit browser you will need to install an
oldish Blackdown java 1.4.2.  You will need to search for it, as their
site has been taken down.  That one has a functioning 64 bit java
plugin.  The only other thing you could do is install the 32 bit browser
in 10.3.  Then you do not need the wrapper, and the 32 bit plugins
(flash, acroread, java) will work.  HTH.
