Version 3 of NX ( i.e. including freeNX ) . . .

 . . . uses "The X window system" which it compresses over an ssh "tunnel"
so
your clients need to have installed
         X, ssh, nxproxy and libraries
plus
        the NX session manger (cache etc)
        NX ssh session key


This is a bit more than a browser plug-in,
so
the nearest you can get is the automated install 
from
        an apache server 
via
        NX Web Companion (java

Look on Nomachine's site :-

        http://www.nomachine.com/documents/plugin/install.php

        http://www.nomachine.com/screenshot/companion.php

This also allows you to put your NX session config files on the apache 
server
for seamless connection to your NX machine.





Nomachine's V4 . . . .
has

        a java ajax web client, which is not even a plug-in, just 
downloaded.

but I don't know what they've done to the v4 nxagent to make it 
compatible.

The v4 nxagent isn't open source, so FreeNX doesn't have it.
