As a linux user a i had a problem with java where i were not able to view the Java applet applications. At last i came to knew that i need to install jre. I just come up with my installation process.

http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp

Step 2: Run that bin file in root terminal or command window as the below example:

Step 5: Lets come to the browser part. Go to the plugins sub-directory under the Mozilla installation directory as the below example one:

ln -s /usr/java/jre1.6.0_03/plugin/i386/ns7/libjava plugin_oji.so


Now you will be able to view the java applet programs.
