Installing Java on the Workstation
Java Plug-in version 1.5.0_06 must be installed on the workstation for the correct operation of Web
Tools. Java Plug-in version 1.4.2_08 is also supported.
If you try to launch Web Tools without any Java Plug-in installed,
• Internet Explorer automatically prompts and downloads the proper Java Plug-in.
• Firefox downloads the most recently released Java Plug-in.
If you try to launch Web Tools with an earlier version Java Plug-in installed,
• Internet Explorer might prompt for an upgrade, depending on the existing Java Plug-in version.
• Firefox uses the existing Java Plug-in.
