Craig:

I thought there was supposed to be some software to make that work. Somebody else here mentioned it a couple of days ago.

Just curious,

Well I have F7 and F7-64bit and F8 on this computer and after a day of gaining information and finding things I have Java running on F7 and F8 both 32 bit machines. Another expert said you have to compile a new Firefox for a 64 bit system with special words to make sure the new one is 32 bit. It *SHould* work then on 64 bit system.

you are talking apples and I am talking oranges

I clearly stated running as a plugin within Firefox

Please pay attention.

If I knew how bad this was going to be I would never have started trying to make Java work. It is just TOO HARD!

and from what I gather, you had no reason to do so, your needs
undoubtedly would have been met with java-compat version automatically
included in Fedora.

let's see if you actually got it to work...what do you get when you type
(as root)

alternatives --config java

?

Craig

[root@k5di ~]# alternatives --config java

There is 1 program that provides 'java'.

 Selection    Command
-----------------------------------------------
*+ 1           /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.5.0-gcj/bin/java

Enter to keep the current selection[+], or type selection number:


I seem to have one.

And this is on F7. The F8 may not be right but the test web page worked....
