I have already managed to successfully install the java plugin using the method you mention (and which I had already stated in my email previous to your own). The problem would appear to be with the application so I'm going back to them with the query.
Thanks for your interest!

I've got an application that runs through a web browser. While this works fine through IE I cant get the correct plugin to get it working through Firefox on Linux. The plugin for IE is:
jre-1_5_0-windows-i586.exe
Through Adept (I'm running Kubuntu Edgy) I've searched for "jre" and have selected "sun-java5-jre" to install but this comes back with errors committing changes and doesnt complete.
Any suggestions most welcome!!??
No idea about what your problem is as you don't list the errors, but have you tried installing the sun-java5-plugin package, which should contain the appropriate bits to Java enable your browser (from memory it'll pull in the jre as well, but the jre alone won't Java enable Firefox).
