Firefox is a great browser and this documentation relates to version 1.50.

Installing Java VM plugin

Install the jdk1.4.2 native port (/usr/ports/java/jdk14)

Then to add the plugin go to the directory:

# cd /usr/X11R6/lib/browser_plugins

and type the following:

# ln -s /usr/local/jdk1.4.2/jre/plugin/i386/ns610/libjavaplugin_oji.so

Now you should have java VM working. To test go to this site and wait a while for the Java VM to load:
