java plugin for firefox2

[agerardi]

I installed the java via ports and also did it by pkg_add. The java plugin works great for both Epiphany and Opera at web sites that use the java plugin. However firefox 2.0.0.20 does not work.
When I do about:plugins...the java apps are their. I also tried firefox-devel and firefox3 to no avail. I know this is probably an easy fix..but I have exhausted all ideas. Maybe I just need to use Epiphany as my web browser.

Tks

Did you managed to fix the problem?

Did you managed to fix the problem?

Nope. I had assumed that the java plugin was already in ./mozilla/plugins.

Did assume incorrectly?

Try removing the file ~/.mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so and create a link.cd ~/.mozilla/plugins
ln -s $JAVA_HOME/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so
$JAVA_HOME may vary depending on the version you installed and you want to use for the plugin.
As example, it could be /usr/local/jdk1.6.0, /usr/local/diablo-jdk1.6.0 or /usr/local/diablo-jre1.6.0 . Also the version number but you can check by yourself.

creating the sym link did the trip.
