Firefox android ice sandwich java update

Asked By Isabellartd 70 points N/A Posted on - 11/04/2012

Does the Firefox Mobile for Android support the Java machine to run Java applet?

For example, Some web mail system works by using the Java applet.

I found lots of mobile browser doesn't support it.

Firefox Mobile is designed to be the same as Firefox Desktop.

How much support of Java applet does Firefox Mobile has done now?

Hello, Isabellartd!

I am afraid, that no one has created a Java plugin that runs on android for any web browser. So java applets will not work within a browser in Android as they do not make a plugin like the one you would find for a desktop computer.

They do not have any plans for creating one since the resources required would not suffice on a mobile device and the technology is considered obsolete.

Best regards

Aileen

HI, you can enable Javascript which will open up more options for you. To do this first open your android browser, then go to settings, then advanced, and tick the little box next to enable Javascript. Although full Java compatibility may not yet be available this is the best solution to date. Hope this helps.
