Do you have /usr/local/diablo-jdk1.5.0/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so ? Or something similar? If so, make a link to it in /usr/local/lib/browser_plugins/ and restart the browser. Worked for me; although, I had done this previously and somehow "lost" the installation during a recent portupgrade. I'm pretty sure there's some magic in /etc/libmap.conf, also, but I think the port is supposed to do that for you.... Kevin Kinsey -- Whatever became of eternal truth?
