Someplace between Firefox 3.5 and 4.0 I changed from diablo to openjdk. That: ln -s /usr/local/openjdk6/jre/lib/IcedTeaPlugin.so ~/.mozilla/plugins/ was the missing step for me.

This link explains it pretty well: http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=21010 Someplace between Firefox 3.5 and 4.0 I changed from diablo to openjdk. It was 3.6. Check the archives for considerable gnashing of teeth as we tried to figure out how to get Java working again. ln -s /usr/local/openjdk6/jre/lib/IcedTeaPlugin.so ~/.mozilla/plugins/ was the missing step for me. Free bonus: if you use Chromium, it works there, too: ln -s /usr/local/openjdk6/jre/lib/IcedTeaPlugin.so /usr/local/share/chromium/ Regards, John Levine, jo...@iecc.com, Primary Perpetrator of "The Internet for Dummies", Please consider the environment before reading this e-mail. http://jl.ly ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

I tried this, and discovered that - at least for SeaMonkey - I had to go to the plugins manager and explicitly enable it before it would show up in "about:plugins".
