Title:
  konqueror: LiveConnect/JavaScript not working (IcedTeaPlugin not
  recognized)

Status in KDE Base Components:
  Confirmed
Status in “kde-baseapps” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: konqueror

  konqueror does have it's very own idea about applet support, but
  doesn't allow this support be replaced with support which comes with
  other plugins like IcedTeaPlugin.

  There's more than one issue:

   - /usr/lib/xulrunner-addons/plugins isn't searched for plugins. AFAIK this is the standard path for xulrunner-1.9
     compatible plugins (there are other paths like /opt/foo* which are searched for plugins, and probably should
    be removed.

   - Now with /usr/lib/xulrunner-addons/plugins added, LiveConnect still doesn't work. As an example visit
     http://people.ubuntu.com/~doko/java/ColorBlockApplet.html and you should be able to change the colors
     and get the alert box by clicking the applet area (install firefox and openjdk-6-jre for a working example).

  As a workaround just use firefox for applets requiring LiveConnect
  support.

  Confirmed by Riddell on irc.
