Hello,

We have an oracle forms application for which we need client to use java and mozilla. But when we run the application on mozilla we keep on getting this message that Plugin is required to display this content.

I have googled a lot and following is what I have already tried on my machine.

a. I have uninstalled java 5 to 6 times. I am using java 8 update 60. b. In adons I see the java 8 is already selected as always activate. attached is a scren shot. c. In adons, JDK also shows up. I tried to remove that also, but still get this error. d. One thing that I found is in registry, when I go under mozilla plugins I don't see any entry for java plugin. I saw one article on this. But I am not sure how to add those entry.

can you provide some support to resolve this issue? it is very annoying as all other browsers except mozilla are able to detect java very easily. Attached are screen shots.

Thanks, bmp
