In the java jdk (or jre) distribution from Sun there is a 'plugin'
called libjavaplugin_oji.so in the ns600 subdirectory (Netscape 6)
or you can get it from the ftp.netscape.com server. You need to
put that file in the mozilla/plugins subdirectory.

The hangup is that the plugin is for linux. I don't know of one for
FBSD (anyone?). So the whole thing works fine if you run the linux
mozilla in linux emulation mode--in fact it seems to run faster than
the native BSD executable.

I also recommend upgrading to 0.9.8, BTW....many bugfixes.

There is a port in /usr/ports/www/linux-mozilla.
