I'm using version 2.1pre7 and yes, the java support was specified when I compiled from the tar ball source. I don't remember the exact options now but I also enabled the related stuff in the configuration for the run time of the browser. Maybe it works on certain pages but for me I have had almost zero success. I sometimes like the layout it does and I also like the frames being shown all at once but javascript well.... I think that will have to wait before it is useful for me.
