Opera and Java

[Kees Jan Koster]

Dear All,

I'm a little stuck. In an effort to rid myself of the Windows
installation on the dark end of my disks I signed up for the local
Internet banking site (Postbank's Girotel Online, for the Dutchies among
you) with the intention to move my banking operations to the same place
where I keep my books: in FreeBSD.

Pointing Opera to JDK 1.1.8 causes Opera do crash upon loading an
applet. Installing the native JDK 1.3.1 causes Opera to not start,
whining about the Java plugin. Using any of the Linux binaries for Java
leaves Opera with no Java plugin detected.

What a mess. Does anyone have a browser that works with Java and is
modern enough to understand the more Microsoft-oriented Girotel site?


 Yours,
   Kees Jan
