I had to reboot to my ubuntu partition to check, I have firefox and java working like a charm.
First, I assume that you got the
java platform installer from Java.com and
successfully completed the installation.
Next you need to create a symbolic link from the directory that java was installed in (usually the same directory that you have the installer in). To create the link, cd to the plugin folder and then link to java like this
cd /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins
ln -s /(java_dir)/jre1.5.0_04/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so
(Note the exact path in bold)
Next, you need to make sure that java is enabled in firefox by going to Edit-->Preferences-->Web Features and make sure "Java Enabled" is checked.
Restart firefox and Voila.
I hope that helps, post again if you have a problem. You can see a
more detailed version from java.com about configuring java
(sorry about being verbose, it is for google and the noobs sake)
