The best source for Java for FC is jpackage.org. A bit of a learning curve, but it generally works much better than the Sun RPMs.
I've added a layer of '>''s to mark the part of your message that was a quote of my message. If you could configure your mail client to quote messages in a similar way, that would help readability.
Does the jpackage version work with Firefox in FC3?
The jpackage Java RPMs require that you grab the Sun (or other) compiler as a tarball and the jpackage nosource RPM, then build the RPMs yourself. The instructions are on the jpackage.org site.
I'm using (slightly older, slightly modified) jpackage Sun RPMs with Sun's 1.5.0_01 source, and they are working fine.
