HTML? Sorry... Oops. Context-sensitive mail client seems to default to that at times when I cut & paste things... I need to watch that.
OK I have changed the $NPX_PLUGIN_PATH environment to be /usr/java/j2re1.4.2_03/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32 to match `gcc -v`. I've read the docs but I think I'm missing something basic about where Moz puts its things. There seems to be several places for plugins to be registered, for example the Shockwave plugin (installed as an RPM) is generic for all users and is in the "about plugins" list whereas user-specified plugins are not; they are stored elsewhere. Also I thought Plugins did not need the user to specify a MIME type, and MIME types were not the same as filename extensions, but the Netscape documentation (to which the Moz AboutPlugins refers) suggests otherwise. I've put simlinks in to /usr/java/j2re1.4.2_03/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32 in everywhere there is a plugins directory (this is just in case the env variable is not being read) but still no good. I might give it a break for a while and will come back to it later. And thanks, Stu for the other URL - I'll do some reading. Server-side stuff seems a lot easier than personal desktop stuff!

I wondered why it was 12k .... Anyhoo, ns4 is most certinaly the wrong directory I'm no sure with your java runtime what is correct it could be ns600 or ns610 or something like about:plugins in Mozilla is your friend :-) also if you are using RH8.0 the plugin will probably need to be compiled with gcc 3.2 so that might be in a separate dir as well..
