Thanks, Tom,
You put me on the right question track. The Mozilla 1.5 needs the
ns610-gcc32 version of the libjavaplugin_oji.so. There are on my machine at
least 7 libjava...so files or links in 7 different directories -
root/.netscape/plugins; usr/lib/mozilla/plugins;
usr/local/mozilla/plugins/java2/plugin/i386/ns600;
usr/local/mozilla/java2/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32 - link;
usr/local/mozilla/plugins; usr/local/mozilla_131/plugins;
usr/java/j21.4.2_04/jre/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32  - link
The last is the one that counts. I needed the link in the
/usr/local/mozilla/plugins. This also contains the flash and the java2 which
under it needed the link, also. It was the 2 links in there that got me.
I don't know why there are so many directories for this.
The program for pulling up the html applet still doesn't work right, but I
can keep playing with that. It isn't picking up the class program which
would enter the html applets' input into the screen. All it puts is a red x
in the box. I can get it to perform with the appletviewer tool.
Thanks,
Tim Sinks
