Hello there! I have a strange problem using the
jsp:plugin tag for
applets. In Firefox 3.6, the tag was transformed to <embed> and <object>, but Firefox could not find the right plugin to execute the applet. Firefox shows a message stating that I need a plugin for this kind of content, but when I try to download it, it also says that it does not know which plugin (it states that the plugin is needed for the content-type application/x-java-applet). The problem does not occur under IE8. I have
Java Plugin installed (jre 6.0 update 20) and applets that use the <applet> tag work just fine.
Has anyone seen this happen before?
The jsp:plugin code:
And the generated code:
