Detecting Browser Java Version Using Javascript

Trying to detect a client's browser for the installed Java plugin version and whether or not it's installed, can be a real pain. Luckily,Eric Gerds has created a JavaScript library to do just that. The JavaScript can detect the version of the Java plugin, if any, on different browsers including FireFox, Internet Explorer, Safari, and Opera. In addtion, his script can also detect QuickTime, Flash, Windows Media Player, and many other browser plugins.
