Firefox no Applets

[luigifonti]

I've just installed Fedora 7 and applied all upgrades.
Applets are not executed in Firefox.
I've installed java jdk1.6.0_03, created a symbolic link for libjavaplugin_oji.so in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins, enabled java in Firefox options, but it does NOT work.
Applets aren't yet executed.
Can someone help ?

luigi,

shouldn't the symbolic link be in /usr/lib/firefox2.0.x/plugins ?
that might be your problem


also, does the warning pop up in firefox saying that java isn't installed?

OK I tried but nothing changed.
No, the browser doesn't complain for missing plugin: it simply does not show the Applet.

In firefox, what does "about:plugins" tell you?

Also, in Edit > Preferences > Content - is "Enable Java" ticked?

Make sure that the architecture of the firefox you are running is i386 and that you are installing i386 Java.
