When you access the Java download site using Chrome, you get the following message. So I guess the answer to your question is your latter answer - Wait for Google.
Otis The Message: Chrome does not support Java 7. Java 7 runs only on 64-bit browsers and Chrome is a 32-bit browser. If you download Java 7, you will not be able to run Java content in Chrome and will need to use a 64-bit browser (such as Safari or Firefox) to run Java content within a browser. Additionally, installing Java 7 will disable the ability to use Apple Java 6 on your system. I understand the above and want to download Java 7 for Mac OS X (10.7.3 and above). -- Otis Rothenberger [email protected] http://chemagic.com On Sep 4, 2012, at 2:39 PM, Rzepa Henry wrote: > > On 4 Sep 2012, at 19:18, Oliver Stueker <[email protected]> > wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> the security issues with Java 1.7 also apply to the 1.6 series [0,1]. >> Fixes of three critical vulnerabilities in 1.7.0_7 and 1.6.0_35 at least >> stop publicly available exploits, but sill contain several other holes [2]. >> >> Still afaik Java 1.7.x is (a bit) more secure than 1.6.x [0]. >> > > On this theme, whilst Java 1.7 is a simple drop in replacement for 1.6, at > least as far as Safari and Firefox are concerned, I have not been able to > get Chrome to recognise it and run Jmol (it had no problems with 1.6). > > "You do not have Java applets enabled in your web browser, or your browser is > blocking this applet". > > Does anyone have a recipe, or must we wait for Google to fix this? > > PS I use chrome for several reasons, but one good one is that it has a > wonderful "Presentation mode" with which you can fool people into thinking > you are running Powerpoint!
