"I don't have the slightest clue" is quite obvious. You need to learn
what and how to do things before you try them.

An rpm install of the Sun rpm should work with Firefox. So now we get to
the real stuff. Actually the Java install is in the OS, usable by the
whole OS, and Firefox uses it. So you got that part wrong too.

What *exactly* is it that you are trying to do here? With *what* release
of Fedora? With what version of Firefox in what release? Are you *sure*
that your problem is with Java and Firefox and not with something else?

Means? Your information is very vague. Makes it had to work on. Details
would be nice.

As for Sun? All of this is 'cost to them free to you.' Hard to bitch at
them if 'you* can't figure out how to read the free offers.' Get it?

BTW- I don' see any "impenetrable gibberish" on their website.
