What you need is the java plugin -- it's a loadable object that adds java capabilities to Netscape, Mozilla and (I think) Mozilla derived browsers like Firebird. The plugin is a standard part of the JDK, except that the FreeBSD build of the plugin is disabled for JDK14 -- no one has committed patches to the code to allow it to build correctly on FreeBSD. To make this work, either install JDK13 (which will sit quite happily alongside JDK14), or go for one of the Linux versions of JDK14 and install a linux version of Firebird.
