Product Description:

The Java Embedding Plugin is a utility that allows other web browsers than Apple's Safari to use the most recent versions of Java (1.4.X) on Mac OS X. When used together with an updated version of Mozilla's MRJ Plugin Carbon (included in this distribution), the Java Embedding Plugin's functionality is currently available to recent versions of Mozilla, Firefox and Camino. But in principle any web browser could use one of the Java Embedding Plugin's two APIs to add support for Java 1.4.X.

What's new in this version:

Made the Java Embedding Plugin compatible with Apple's recently released Java Security Update for Mac OS X 10.3.X. For more information see: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=308549
Changed the behavior of the Java Embedding Plugin to suit recent changes in Camino's tab bar. Prior to this change, black blobs and other strange artifacts would appear in the tab bar if it overlaid one or more applets (even ones in other tabs).
Worked around an Apple bug that caused mouse selection to be turned on (inappropriately) after clicking on an applet in Firefox 1.5 Beta 1. After doing this, moving the mouse around caused text and graphics outside the applet to be selected and deselected, as if you were holding down the left mouse button and "dragging" the mouse pointer.
Several other minor bug fixes, mostly for problems that only appear in recent pre-release versions of Firefox and Camino.

I don't know if this works or not. Is there a way to test it in Firefox or Camino. I just keep updating it. It's the most annoying thing I keep updated. I always have to open the read me because I forget where it goes and to copy the thang to put in the Terminal to update that date. Dang, you can't think of an easier way. Maybe someone can make an installer for you or a script or something.
