public class webiReport extends SeleneseTestNgHelper
{

public void setUp() throws Exception
{
selenium = new DefaultSelenium("localhost", 4444, "*firefox", "http://www.google.com/");
selenium.start();
//introducing a delay of 3 seconds between the execution of commands
selenium.setSpeed("6000");
selenium.windowFocus();
selenium.windowMaximize();

}

Does not seem any thing obviously wrong, you are instantiating firefox -

selenium = new DefaultSelenium("localhost", 4444, "*firefox", "http://www.google.com/");

Which version of Selenium are you using?

I am using the latest version of selenium available
i.e., selenium-server-standalone-2.21.0.jar

surprisingly it works when i replace Firefox with chrome. I mean to say it is opening firefox when use chrome instead of Firefox.

Thanks
