S it necessary to disable Java (and Javascript) on Firefox for Android or are the issues only related to PCs and MACs? If I need to disable it on my mobile device, I can't figure out how to do it. I appreciate your help.

Java and JavaScript are not the same thing. http://kb.mozillazine.org/JavaScript_is_not_Java

Also there is no Java plugin for Android as Oracle does not make the Java plug-in for Android due to Oracle's lawsuit against Google which of course is the developer of Android.
