Subject: Java Plugin - Poor Mozilla Install?
Date: Sun, 15 Feb 2004 09:08:13 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <c0o8vh$65c$1@sea.gmane.org> (raw)
I have posted my problem here recently and many people have tried to
help me. Thanks! But the problem remains. I have a theory I would
appreciate your opinion on.
I can not get my Mozilla 1.6 to recognize the Java Plugin X-JAVA-VM. It
auto installs from the Netscape Plugin page and says it successful. I
can see it on my machine, but I can't seem to put it where Mozilla wants it.
For some reason (Newbie issue probably) I have Mozilla in a directory
called /mozilla and a .mozilla directory. When I look at the Bookmarks
file, I see that the date in the .mozilla directory is the most recent.
So, I'm assuming that I'm using the Mozilla in the .mozilla directory.
Is that normal? Or, have I messed up the install of Mozilla and that's
why the plugins won't work properly?
Would I be smart to take Mozilla off my machine (saving my Inbox,
Bookmarks, etc.) and then reinstall? The reason I ask, is that my
nephew helped me set this up last December and he was surprised that
Mozilla installed to the Root.
My Mozilla functions fine in all other regards, but I just can't add
plugins. With the about:plugins in command, I do see that two plugins
are installed;
application/x-shockwave-flash Shockwave Flash swf Yes
application/futuresplash FutureSplash Player spl Yes
Any ideas?
Dave
