Hi,
So apparently the latest version of Netscape7 does not longer include
the java plugin[1]. I found that the only way to make Netscape7 work
with a java plugin is to do the following:
* install sun-jre14-2.0 from pkgsrc-wip (or using the patches
from [2])
* install gcc-3.3; do set PKG_GCC3_JAVA
* install netscape7-1
* ln -sf=20
/usr/pkg/lib/netscape/netscape7/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so=20
/usr/pkg/java/sun-1.4/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so
* export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=3D/usr/pkg/gcc-3.3/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
For whatever reason, using any of the other JDKs did not work for me,
only the one with the gcc-java-plugin.
Now, if somebody can tell me why konqueror can use the java plugin but
not mozilla...

This one's tricky. You have to use imaginary numbers, like eleventeen...
