My moz+gtk2 on solaris8 with Java(TM) Plug-in 1.4.1_01-b01 works for that URL (
a great GB EMU! ). Be sure to click on the plugin first before you play with it.

I just tried again, using mozilla ( I was using galeon 1.3.1 before) it 
still doesn't work, ex, when I hit z or x typeahead find is started
I can click on the buttons in the applet and load a rom, etc. and I
have tried clicking all over the applet and then playing but it doesn't work.
I have the same version of java, could this be a gtk version thing? I am
running gtk+2.2.0

gtk2.2.0 works for me as well as gtk2.1.0. Try to keep the mouse pointer in the
range of the plugin after clicking on it. That's how XWindow focus works.

Comment 4

[John M]

Keeping the mouse pointer directly over the gameboy screen doesn't fix the problem
Keys don't go to the applet for me, using galeon or mozilla.

Marking worksforme based on other comments and the fact that it does work for me
as well.
