Java support in Mozilla

To be able to view Java applets in Mozilla on NetBSD, you have to enable the Java plugin. For the www/mozilla package, this is done as follows: 

# cd /usr/pkg/lib/mozilla/plugins
# ln -s ../../../java/sun-1.5/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so .

When working with the Java applet from http://goproblems.com/, mozilla frequently crashed. So I tried another way, which was setting MOZILLA_USE_LINUX in my mk.conf and installing www/firefox-bin-java. Up to now, the browser hasn't crashed for a single time. --Rillig 01:37, 22 April 2007 (CEST)

I could use java applets by installing www/seamonkey-bin and www/seamonkey-bin-java with lang/sun-jre6. It was stable for me, but I haven't tested it thoroughly, becuase I only use it for my internet banking. I also think Seamonkey is more stable than Firefox in general as of Firefox2. --Replaced 15:59, 18 December 2007 (CET)
