Cannot get Java plug-in to work with Mozilla?

I cannot get the Java plug-in to work with Mozilla v1.7.12.01.00 installed on HP-UX v11.11 running in 64 bit mode. The Java files installed on this server are:
$ swlist -l fileset | grep -i java
# Jdk14 1.4.2.08.02 Java2 1.4 SDK
Jdk14.JDK14-COM 1.4.2.08.02 Java2 1.4 SDK common files

I am trying to get Mozilla to recognize the Java on the web page by setting it up as a helper application. To do this, I in Mozilla I went to Edit -> Preferences -> Help Applications, where I added a new Mime type of MIME type:"application/x-javascript", Description: plug-in for Java files, Extension:.class,.java,.jar,.jnlp,.jardiff,.ser

I still can't get the Java part of the web page to load under Mozilla - the web page displays a funny looking symbol that looks like a crest in place of the Java generated menus that should be displayed. The page then tries to get a resource from http://www.hp.com , but it does not say what specific URL on www.hp.com that it is trying to get to. Any ideas on how we should configure Mozilla so that it can read the web pages with Java code properly?

Shalom Mott,

I've done this before and recall not using these guys:
NetscapeDirSvr7.NDS-BSCLNT B.07.10.10 Netscape Core Java classes
NetscapeDirSvr7.NDS-BSJRE B.07.10.10 Java Runtime Environment

But using different plugins.

I got them from Sun's website, which linked back to HP, but not http://www.hp.com/go/java

I recall it made no sense, but it did work.

Re: Cannot get Java plug-in to work with Mozilla?

Steve, the Netscape files showed up on our server as we had both Netscape and Mozilla installed on it.

I am not quite sure what link to follow at the web site that you mentioned. It appears that we have Java v1.4.2 from the swlist output that I posted. So, would I want to go to the link for "SDK & RTE 1.4 (1.4.2.10 January, 2006) NEW!", or would I want to go to the link for "JDK, JRE, and runtime plug-in for 5.0.03 (PA-RISC 2 only) (March, 2006) NEW!"?
