I just say !DOCTYPE HTML these days. Is there a DTD designator I should
be using?
I'd really just settle for "The version of Java you require has not been
installed. You have to do it manually because those at JNLP hate you and
want to justify their existence and budget".
The lovely success/failure status routines we got in Java 7 would be a
nice place to stick an error report. (At least for very recent and
future version checks :-)
I also thought FireFox (and other browsers?) only had one plugin now for
Java (launch and JRE)?
HOLD THE PHONE!!!
This from: -
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/blocked/p428
Java Deployment Toolkit (click-to-play) has been blocked for your
protection.
Why was it blocked?
The Java Deployment Toolkit plugin is known to be insecure and is
unnecessary in most cases. Users should keep it disabled unless strictly
necessary.
Who is affected?
All Firefox users who have this plugin installed.
What does this mean?
The problematic add-on or plugin will be automatically disabled and
no longer usable.
When Mozilla becomes aware of add-ons, plugins, or other
third-party software that seriously compromises Firefox security,
stability, or performance and meets certain criteria, the software may
be blocked from general use. For more information, please read this
support article.

The Numpties in JNLP and Applets are an industry-wide joke and too
embarrassing for someone with Larry's ego past successes and erstwhile
commitment to quality :-(
When is someone going to peel back the scab on this festering sore of
Applets and (Oh Oracle defines "RIA" aren't we clever) start sacking people?
That's put me off my corn-flakes :-(
