Java works on Chrome but not Firefox. I've uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox. Chacked all appropriate boxes in Control Panel. Deleted JavaReg.Dat. Enabled plugin. Uninstalled all Java from my computer and reinstalled. Cleared Firefox Cache. No luck.

Do you see the Java plugin in Tools > Add-ons > Plugins ?

Firefox is a 32 bit application, so you need to install the 32 bit Java version.

See Java Platform > Java SE 7U5 or Java 6U33 (Downoad JRE)

Thanks for answering. Yes, I see version SE 7 U5 10.5.1.255. I definitely have the 32-bit version installed.

Do the Java plugin link to the correct 32 bit Java version?

See:

You can see the installed plugins that are enabled on the about:plugins page.

You can set the plugin.expose_full_path pref to true on the about:config page to see the full path of plugins on the about:plugins page. It is best not to leave that pref set to true as it exposes that full path
