Solaris Java Plug-in User's Guide

Setting the Plug-in Path

You use the NPX_PLUGIN_PATH environment variable to specify a non-default location of Java Plug-in, or, if you installed both Java Plug-in 1.2 and 1.1.2 on your system, to specify the plug-in you want to use.


Note -

If you install a plug-in in the same location as Netscape Communicator, Netscape defaults to that plug-in.
