Can anyone here give me the magic decoder ring recipe for getting jre "plugged" into Firefox 3.0.1? The plugins directory is gone and the Firefox FAQ regarding this issue cryptically mentions that plugin support has been dropped. It then points one to a early adopter SUN jre1.6-10 page that has innumerable dependencies which my version of CentOS-5.2 does not meet.
Firefox 3.0.0 had a plugins directory and it did support the logical link plugin:
ls -s libjavaplugin_oji.so /usr/java/default/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so
I have no clue how to get java to work in FF3.0.1 at the moment. Any help would be appreciated.
Can you drop it into /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ ? Flash player puts it's plugin in this directory on my installation, and it appears to still be working.
