"To view the content on this page, please click here to install Java." inside JS pop-up in case of no-JRE installed is inappropriate.

      I noticed without JRE installed, after clicking link "click to launch this app as webstart" on page such as http://sqeweb.us.oracle.com/deployment2/cobundle/html/testJRE6Plus.html , a JS dialog will popup saying "To view the content on this page, please click here to install Java.". However, there's no button "here", only "OK" and "Cacnel". So I guess this should be "please click OK to install Java" - a minor flaw.

      The same issue for JavaFX.
      1. Install mac nightly build #483
      2. access page http://sqeweb.us.oracle.com/deployment2/cobundle/html/testJRE6Family21.html in safari
      3. Clicking on link "click to launch this app as webstart", if you see a JS Dialog "A newer version of JavaFX is required to view the content on this page. Please click here to update JavaFX.", then the issue is reproduced.

      And, seems "newer" version is incorrect, because fx2.1 is older than fx2.2 - the currently installed on with 7u6 (co-bundled).
