Yes, the native jdk-1.3.1 port includes the java plugin for Mozilla:

    happy-idiot-talk:/usr/ports:% pkg_info -L jdk-1.3.1p7 | grep javaplugin
    /usr/local/jdk1.3.1/jre/lib/i386/libjavaplugin_jni.so
    /usr/local/jdk1.3.1/jre/lib/i386/libjavaplugin_jni_g.so
    /usr/local/jdk1.3.1/jre/lib/javaplugin.jar
    /usr/local/jdk1.3.1/jre/plugin/i386/ns4/javaplugin.so
    /usr/local/jdk1.3.1/jre/plugin/i386/ns4/javaplugin_g.so
    /usr/local/jdk1.3.1/jre/plugin/i386/ns600/libjavaplugin_oji.so
    /usr/local/jdk1.3.1/jre/plugin/i386/ns600/libjavaplugin_oji_g.so

You don't need to do anything special when building the JDK --- the
java plugin gets built by default.  You can turn off building the
plugin by:

    make -DWITHOUT_PLUGIN

You'll need to create a symbolic link as instructed at the end of the
install process so that mozilla can find the plugin:

    ln -s /usr/local/jdk1.3.1/jre/plugin/i386/ns600/libjavaplugin_oji.so \
      /usr/X11R6/lib/mozilla/plugins/

(or mozilla-devel if that's the mozilla port you've installed).

Remember to enable java from the preferences panel in Mozilla.  Then
to test that everything works, try
http://games.yahoo.com/games/downloads/dm.html (ignore the warnings
about incompatibility with unix/Mac, they're out of date) or
http://www.netspace.net.au/~gregegan/APPLETS/Applets.html.

        Cheers,

        Matthew
