It didn't seem to make any difference. I am using OpenJDK on Fedora 13. It may be that the site would work better with Oracle java, yet OpenJDK did work one time. How to reproduce ----- 1. Open Firefox. Go to URL http://www2.chemistry.msu.edu/faculty/reusch/VirtTxtJml/intro1.htm 2. Under Edit > Preferences > Security > Exceptions (Warn me ... install add-ons), add "www2.chemistry.msu.edu" (else the web page jmol app allowing display of a molecular model will not install, and I will NOT be warned by Firefox itself that an add-on installation is being attempted). 3. Under "Menu" on the left, click on Browser Test Page. 4. The Browser Test Page worked one time, displaying (as I recall) the molecule 1,3 cis-dichloro-cyclohexane in a box on the left side of the page. 5. Subsequent attempts to access this page resulted in Firefox 3.6.16 crashes.

2011-03-28 @ 20:12 EST: Installing Oracle's jre-6u24-linux-x64-rpm.bin corrected the problem. No Firefox security exception for installation of plugins by the above website is necessary. The problem appears to be that the jmol-rendered portions of the web page require Oracle's java rather than OpenJDK/Iced Tea to function properly.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 13 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 13. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '13'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 13's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 13 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 13 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2011-06-25. Fedora 13 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
