In my test (see above) the page doesn't change on pressing the button, not even
after timeout, and now not even in chromium.
Without the patch, chromium works, only firefox4 has the issue.


I ran `env ICEDTEAPLUGIN_DEBUG=1 chrome` and this is what is printed after
pressing the button:

I do not preclude that this could be something specific to my environment:
FreeBSD + OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0-b22).
