If you report a bug about a plugin you have to always include the used plugin version.

Several tested java applets are working fine with FF3.5b4, SM trunk with SE 6 U13 on win2003

Thanks.

I had Java(TM) Platform SE 6 (U0).
I installed it on my Firefox 3.0.x, and it worked pretty well.
It may have been corrupted when I upgraded to Firefox 3.5 Beta 4.

I just installed Java(TM) Platform SE 6 U13 and it works now.
The only weird thing is that the test page says that my Java version is 6 U0.

Does Firefox load Java 6 U13 ?
just enter about:plugins in Firefox as URL to see the list of installed plugins.

Do you still see this with Firefox 3.6.3 or later and java 6 update 20 or later?
