Just use a second browser for that particular website, simple as that.

A Website can use Java Web Start to launch a Java application in an external standalone window instead of using an applet to embed the Java plugin in a web page.
A Java Web Start JNLP file is basically a XML file that the server sends as application/x-java-jnlp-file and that is opened by the default application for this MIME type (Java Web Start).
Java then handles everything on its own, but there is no longer embedding possible like a plugin offers.
Java registers this MIME type when you install the Java program.
