WFM, current trunk CVS; Linux, Java plugin 1.4

Reporter: You say the expected result is to "Include the plug-in to get this cam
loaded correctly". Does that mean you do not have Java installed, and do NOT get
a prompt to download it?

Confirm Problems with 
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.1a+) Gecko/20020707

Many error-messages in the java-console, but it works (more or less) with IE6

As per comment #1:

I do have Java installed and do not get any prompts when the cam download
breaks.  What I meant as the expected result was that the necessary software to
handle this page needs to be bundled in, somehow.  I would be just as happy,
though, using a work-around if there is one.

contents of the java console

grabbing one of the applets (the numbers below the webcam):
<applet codebase="http://cams.exploratorium.edu/java"
code="GTS.awt.getButton.class" width="26" height="26" name="get">
<param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF">
<param name="fgcolor" value="#FFFFFF">
<param name="image" value="/1.jpg">
<param name="url"
VALUE="http://cams.exploratorium.edu/camera.mod?camera=http://live1.exploratorium.edu/camera.mod&model=pelco&button=b1">
</applet>

produces the the following text in the java console

Not only is the webcam not working but when i try to select any one of the eight
different cams that are available, Mozilla (build 20020716 for Mac OS X) crashes
everytime. The URL works just fine in my Mac IE & OW browsers.

This is all the output in Java console, and the cameras still works as fine with
