The Java console in MRJ is currently a text file.

Alternatively there is an interim solution that requires a Java applet to be 
installed and accessed seperately.

This is sub-optimal. The console should behave as it does in Navigator 4.X,
appearing when requested from a menu item in the browser front end.

It may also need to be something other than a Java applet?

Adding this bug as a placeholder to track this issue.

Ever confirmed: true
short term solution would be to deploy the consoleapplet jar and html file as 
cited in 30593.  otherwise move this out to m17ish perhaps.  loki

No target milestone: no resources to work on Macintosh bugs right now.
Marking helpwanted and platform parity

Nominating for RTM. I don't think we can ship without a Java console.
It would make Mozilla useless as a Java development and testing platform (on the
Mac in this case) and make it far less likely people will test their appelts
with Moz.

This is unassigned and has no milestone!

Re-assigning this bug to myself, as Loki no longer works at Sun.  Leaving target
milestone as undefined, as there are no resources to work on Macintosh problems.

Putting on nsbeta3 nominee radar.  Needs to get fixed by Sept 14.

Well its nice to see the mac java bugs get some priority, but does this mean some 
@netscape.com resource can be found? Patrick Beard can probably do this, but I 
image he's already as doomed as anyone else?

please see bug #6872, as those proposed fixes appear to also cure the Java
Console bugs.
Status: NEW → ASSIGNED
Once the bug #6872 changes get checked in, you'll be able to open the Java
Console via the menu item.

The text file 'mrjpluginappletouput' is created and used by debug_out in
MRJSession.cpp iff (that's if and only if) the Java Console is not open.  So
you'll still be able to get the text file, which some may find handy.  Perhaps
others will feel it's a bug.
The fix for bug #6872 landed yesterday, and I've tested successfully with a
yesterday build and a today build. Changing to FIXED.
