I'm using
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2b) and Netscape 7.0
I went to the sites you suggested me but it speaks about old browsers and says that with new version the plugin is presintalled.

You can download Java plugin (JRE) for linux here:

I had already java installed on the system Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.1_03-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.3.1_03-b03, mixed mode)
I just linked libjavaplugin_oji.so in the mozilla plugins directory.
One thing. I went to the java website to see a new version and i noticed that there are SDK and JRE. What's the difference? As far as i know SDK is the java compiler, but what JRE is ?
Thanks again

JRE is what you need : Java Run Time Environment, Java environment to run application written under Java. You are 100% right that sdk is the development part, the other side.
Did your link to mozilla solve the problem ?

jre is the java run time environment. u need jre, sdk's arent required for browsing.

open your browser window and give

about:plugins

or is there some option in the help window to see the plugins installed. what does this list?

The JRE provides the libraries, Java virtual machine, and other components necessary for you to run applets and applications written in the Java programming language. It does not contain tools and utilities such as compilers or debuggers for developing applets and applications.


The Java 2 SDK is a superset of the JRE. The Java 2 SDK contains everything that's in the JRE, plus additional tools such as compilers and debuggers that are necessary for developing applets and applications.

The link from java directory to mozilla plugins directory solved my problem.
With the about:plugins from browser i see that java is enabled, also flash and acrobat.
Thanks for your help all.
