I did something similar five minutes ago:
First, for sources.list:
# Java from Blackdown
deb ftp://sunsite.dk/mirrors/java-linux/debian woody main non-free

Then
apt-get update
apt-get install j2sdk1.3 j2re1.3 j2se-common

Finally
cd /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/
ln -s /usr/lib/j2re1.3/lib/i386/libjavaplugin_jni.so

I don't know if this is the right plugin, though, as I said, I did this a few 
minutes ago, and I haven't tested... :-) (I installed Java for work on my 
server, not the client... :-) )
