Next Generation JRE(Java Plug-In):
Java Plug-In technology ("Java Plug-In"), which is included in the Java Runtime Environment, enables Java applets to run in popular web browsers on the desktop.
The next-generation Java Plug-In, introduced in Java SE 6 Update 10, provides powerful new capabilities to applets in the web browser, while improving the overall reliability and functionality of applets in a backward-compatible manner.
The next-generation Java Plug-In offers a completely redesigned architecture. Instead of executing applets in the same operating system process as the web browser, the new plug-in runs one or more Java virtual machine instances ("JVMs") which connect back to the browser for full interoperability with the surrounding web page. This architectural change offers many advantages and enables several new features.
NEW Features:
Improved reliability.
Built-in JNLP support.
Multiple JRE version support.
Improved Java/JavaScript communication.
Improved applet lifecycle management.
Better large heap support.
The new Java Plug-In is designed to work in the following browsers:
Internet Explorer 6 and 7 on Windows XP and Vista
Firefox 3 on Windows XP, Windows Vista, Solaris and Linux.
