Bug Description
When trying to upload photos via the photo uploader in Facebook the applet fails to initialize. You get the certificate up and can accept it but then the applet stalls. I'm using OpenJDK 6.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Go to www.facebook.com and log in.
2. Press Add Photos
3. Create and album and select upload photos
Some information about my system:
# update-

I can confirm this problem on my hardy system. This is on FF3.0.1 as bundled with Ubuntu 8.04, using openjdk-6-jre 6b11-2ubuntu2 and icedtea- gcjwebplugin 1.0-0ubuntu5.
When doing the steps above I also get the certificate trust screen, click on Run and nothing happens, just a grey rectangle with the FF status bar saying "Start: applet not initialized" at the bottom.
On closer inspection this could well be an issue with icedtea- gcjwebplugin though, not openjdk. See bug 199680 which is related to applets over an ssl connection and seems to be the same problem
