      On Firefox and mozilla based browsers JavaScript can make direct calls to Java APIs e.g. java.lang.System.out.println can be used to display a message on the Java Console.
      This functionality is not working on FF3 while it works on all of the previous versions of
      the mozilla family.
      Try running the testcases from the following page with FF3 and older versions of the mozilla and FF family.
      http://sqeweb/deployment2/jitu/deployment_JDK7_int_ws/deployment/src/plugin/manual/html/DirectTest.html

      On FF3 following is the behavior using old and new Plug-in
      Old Plug-in
      -----------

      None of the testcases works

      Char Tests:

      Enumeration test:

      Numeric tests : All Passed
