quick question....
slvadcjelli42:
When I visit a site that uses java with Mozilla, I get the standard grey box with a puzzle piece in the middle (This page contains information of a type (application/x-java-vm) that can only be viewed with the appropriate plugin). So, I went to sun.com and downloaded the "Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition, version 1.4.2" RPM, figuring that would fix it, since I did pretty much the equivalent thing to fix my flash troubles. No difference, though.
Anyway, my question is, is there something in particular I need to install for this? If not, is there a configuration I need to alter?
(P.S. And just out of curiosity, why is java not included? Is it the same issue as with the mp3's and Redhat?)

Really, a simple Google search...

No. Java isn't included as it's not free software. The mp3 thing is a patent issue.

Hi, go to netscape.com and click on browser central. As netscape now is not mainly browser site. Look in small letters on the left "browser central". Once you reach browser central. Click on find plugins (or something similar) Now select linux for plugin search it will come with about 20 linux plugins scroll through them. You will evemtually find Suns Java plugin. It will auto install it for you. If you are installing from none root it is suggested that you put it to your home directory.
