Currently, if you encounter a page requiring java and you don't have the plugin,
a window pops up saying:

"This page contains information of type (application/x-java-vm) that can only be
viewed  with the appropriate Plug-in. Click OK to download Plugin"

After you click OK you are taken to: http://home.netscape.com/plugins/jvm.html
where you can download the plugin for windows or linux.

On HPUX we need this link to take us to where we can download a plugin for HPUX.



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to http://java.sun.com
2. if you don't have a java plugin installed a dialog box pops up telling you
that you don't have a java plugin and to press okay to install one
3. Press OK - you are taken to http://home.netscape.com/plugins/jvm.html
where you can install the plugin for windows or linux

Actual Results:  You go to http://home.netscape.com/plugins/jvm.html


Expected Results:  If the browser is running on HPUX it needs to go to a site to
install the java plugin for HPUX

The URL is hardcoded in mozilla/modules/plugin/default/unix/nullplugin.h

Below is a diff to change this hardcoded URL.
I don't know the URL for where to download the Java Plugin for HPUX yet so I
used "http://www.hp.com"

 Index: nullplugin.h

Shouldn't you point them to something other than hp.com?
Didn't HP tell us what the java url will be?
Going to hp.com is confusing... at least to me.
Using http://www.hp.com is not the permanent solution.  I'm using it in the diff
right now since I do not know the correct URL.  Once I know the correct URL, I
will replace the www.hp.com.  I posted the diff this way so that if anybody saw
anything else wrong, they could comment.  I realize that this was not clear and
I apologize for the confusion.
The URL to use for the java plugin is:
http://www.hp.com/go/java
This is an updated diff with the new URL:
