Thanks for your help.
Your document is very lucid.

I do actually have "GCJ Web Browser Plugin 1.4",
which says "The GCJ Web Browser Plugin executes Java applets".

But I don't actually have any urgent need to see Java applets with Firefox,
so I guess I'll wait until everything works with IcedTea (Fedora 9?).
