Ken... When running Win 7 64bit, you only have to install BOTH Java 32bit and 64bit IF -- that's IF -- you also run 64bit browsers. If not, you only need to install the 32bit Java files. Most users do not run or install 64bit browsers as they tend to be sluggish even in 64bit Win 7 machines like yours...and mine for that matter. The 32bit browsers and 32bvit Java run just fine and very fast, in both 32bit Win 7 and 64bit Win 7. If you install Java, while the browsers are closed down, and they fail to recognize that a new version is installed, then you should delete EVERY scrap of Java from the machine, make sure all Java and related components are de-installed from the Program and Features applet, then do a new install of the latest Java, which is version 7 Update 11 as of this message. Then you will usually find that all is installed and is known to all the browsers, and the Java Control Panel applet will also report that the latest version is installed and active.

My main point was relating the Flash Plug-In crashing in many current FF and SM installations, and what was discussed with Adobe staffers regarding Flash 11. We have seen this disable of one, some or all of the mentioned standards, Flash, PHP, JavaScript, even Java, happen, was the point, but I have no wish or predilection for such to be done, as web havoc with a side-order of user fearanoia always ensues. My quite minor point was that ANY web standard...be it Flash, PHP, JavaScript, even Java, etc. can be disabled at one or more points, that's all, hence I mentioned it as a side-note to the Flash Plug-In crashing in many current FF and SM installations.

RE: Flash 11.x Plug-In Full Screen crashing in FF, SM
RE: Flash 11.x Plug-In Full Screen crashing in FF, SM A great many Firefox and a fair reported number of SM users are reporting back to Mozilla and Adobe that Flash Plug-In 11.x is crashing the Flash Player Plug-In when going to full screen (aka FS) Flash display. The normal default size Flah Plug-In appears to work satisfactorily for the vast percentage of users and report-backs. The crashing when optioning to Flash FS is sometimes 100% repeatable, and at other times closing and re-running the web-page or Flash plug-in, then again selecting Flash Plug-In FS no longer shows any problem, especially for that particular web-site or page. There are also crash reports coming in from Apple OS users as well. So far, very little insider/tech information is forthcoming from any source, although Mozilla and Adobe are looking into the respective and other apps, and it appears this will be solved. So far, the Mozilla answer is to uninstall Flash Plug-In 11.x and revert back to the last 10.x Flash install, but that's not as likely or recommended because 11 solved a few other operational and security problems, yet that reversion option may have to be done. Adobe has signaled that the core app with the problem is indeed Flash 11.x Plug-In. JR Personal Reflection Bottom line: End-users who fully and intentionally disable the likes of Flash plug-in, PHP, Java and even JavaScript browser operations are in reality doing more to damage their browser operations and shut themselves out of a great many needful and useful web-sites world-wide. Many users who do the above and dwalk away from those options then wonder why a great many web-sites and pages no longer work or display properly, then start suspecting the browser or the OS, etc. Joe ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

PHP. PHP is a server-side technology, just like ASP and ASP.NET; how can this possibly be disabled client-side ? I would also argue that the vast majority of those who do the above and walk away from those options do not wonder why a great many web-sites and pages no longer work or display properly -- they know why, and they are prepared to live with this in order to satisfy their own security concerns and/or paranoia. Like it or not, in many modern browsers, esp. those allowing access to about all the settings, one can disrupt PHP operations, essentially switching PHP execution off. Can be done in FF, for example, have seen it accomplished in the OS with Internet Explorer, etc. Thankfully, people do NOT usually do this, nor should they, yet it can be terribly exciting to troubleshoot a bad web experience and find out that this kind of PHP disabling has been done. Yes, indeed, I tend to agree that many of those who do the above know full well, or believe they do, of what they are doing, so PHP failures or web-disasters should not come as a surprise to them.

Re: Seamonkey excessive memory usage, et al
Those having rather recent or sudden extreme memory usage in Seamonkey, may want to try this possibility that HAS lessened or solved Firefox's similar memory problems. It may work on SM as well, as it's not adjusting part of the browser itself, but instead adjusting Java via the Java Plug-In that most all browsers use, especially FF and SM. Although the memory leak problem appears to have begun with the release of Firefox 12, it is actually not Firefox that is causing the problem. The problem is your friend and mine, Sun Java, whose concept of a next-generation plug in appears to be lag your computer to all hell. Go to your control panel, double click Java, and review your settings. There is an option [called] Enable the next-generation java plug-in. Make sure you uncheck that. This fixed my Firefox memory problem (similar to those problems posted) immediately. You must disable the plug in through Java, it will override Firefox settings. I would like to end this by saying I have always hated Java, and regret that it is 2012 and that it is still in use. *Does this Java related fix ruin or turn off Java usage in Firefox 12, or does it just disconnect a probably faulty part of Java ? * *Answer back states: * Hi, disabling this option has had no effect on my web browsing experience, other than 1.) halving the memory usage by firefox.exe 2.) prevent firefox.exe process from still running after I have closed all firefox windows and tabs Again, this recommended fix may also assist SM browser users, and the fix may not adversely affect those of us that want or need Java to work in our browsers.

We and a great many others that are and have been using ZAP2IT.COM for many years and with many browsers -- currently now including SeaMonkey 2.x, Firefox 3.6.x and now Firefox 4, IE 5 through IE 8 and 9, SlimBrowser 5 -- and many OS systems. We and a great many others have had few if any problems with ZAP2IT.COM -- with any problems seen seemingly dwelling in arcane MS IE 6, 7, 8, 9 settings and design factors, not in the other browsers nor on the ZAP2IT.COM pages. As is usual, if the ZAP2IT.COM site was in that dire of straits as far as HTML / XHTML / PHP and who knows what else coding problems, then not many people could ever have used it, and it would have collapsed years ago. May I and we ZAP2IT.COM users suggest looking more into your own OS, your browsers that are in use, and the fact that in many instances, the computer end-user has mangled their own systems and/or browsers to the extent of having manifold problems.

If those morons knew how to construct a Web page. *that* would be a start. Over 100 XHTML errors on a single page is just pathetic. You could send them the link to their validation results and tell them they need to pull their heads out of their rear orifices. -- ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
