You are confusing Javascript with Java. Different languages, different
implementations. JavaScript is a Netscape invention. Java is a Sun
Microsystems invention.

Most websites nowadays use JavaScript, not Java. GMail uses JavaScript, as
do all "AJAX" sites.

Java is rarely used on "web sites". Nowadays. Java is used on the server
side (Twitter runs atop Java - OpenJDK on their servers), or on desktops,
for full blown desktop apps, outside the browser (Think: the Vuze
bittorrent client, vuze.com, Jitsi, the open source Skype alternative, etc).

RE: Apache OpenOffice 4.1.2 released

[Dennis E. Hamilton]

To complete the information that I could get from the original reporter, I
finally asked about refreshing his browser pages.  

That did it.

It worked for both Chrome and Internet Explorer.  The Edge browser did not
show the problem because the reporter had not been using it and so there was
no cache to rely on.

It appears that refreshing the browser is not an automatic behavior for some
folks.  

I am not certain what sort of remedy there is.  I don't know if there is a
way to obtain caching on the network while not caching in browsers, or
caching for less time in browsers.  

Clearing browser caches has undesirable consequences for the user.  I am
also uncertain what can be done at the servers to invalidate upstream caches
when the cache lifetime is too great.

If anyone has knowledge of remedies in this regard, advice on dev@
openoffice.apache.org would be very welcome.

[Dennis E. Hamilton]

Andrea,

The original reporter did not receive any noscript message.  He got a download 
page that had no buttons for Downloading Full Release and for Downloading 
Language Pack.  Instead, there were two tiny circles, suggesting that the 
technique for filling in the correct links on the browser page failed.

In addition, the light-green area beneath the darker-green download information 
was empty.  This is usually where details about the release version, sizes, 
signatures, hashes, and some additional links appear.  I don't know where that 
data comes from, but it did not appear.

The Original reporter sent me screen shots that confirm this behavior.  In 
addition, if the version is changed from 4.1.2 to 4.1.1, everything works 
properly, according to a later report.

I don't know if that is enough to figure out a source of the difficulty.  

Although the original reporter used both Internet Explorer 11 and Chrome on 
Windows 10 Home, presenting the same problem, it was later discovered that the 
Edge browser opens the page just fine.

RE: Apache OpenOffice 4.1.2 released

Thanks Larry,

I considered that it might be a JavaScript problem and I looked at the Source 
of the page.  There are *tons* of JavaScript on that page and it appears to be 
running.  I did not dig deeper.  

I did not turn on a debugger and I did not look deeper to see if there is 
something particular about the JavaScript that is only what is failing.

I believe the frame with release information is retrieved from SourceForge.  If 
the page served directly from SourceForge at 
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/> does work, we can rule 
out SourceForge blocking and look elsewhere.

In a direct response and screen shot sent to me, the problem for the reporter 
is that the Download button does not appear on his computer.  There are two 
small adjacent circles where the "Download full installation" and "Download 
language pack" buttons should be. 

The frame with the release information is also empty.

I am wondering about adblockers and possible blocking of access to SourceForge.

I recommend that Victor try going directly to
.

Victor, you should see a big green Download button just beneath the Apache 
OpenOffice title and the review stars.  If you do, click that button.

Do not press any buttons on the next page that comes up.  Just wait several 
seconds.  The "Do you want to run or save ... " dialog should then appear at 
the bottom of your Internet Explorer 11 window.

If you don't get the button on the sourceforge.net page, let us know and we can 
find another alternative.

Those are most of the time not links, but advert banners.

Big difference. Web users should learn to know the difference between a
regular text link, a web page button and a bitmap (image) with text written
on it. Just hovering the mouse cursor over an banner image will usually
tell you (by looking at the browser's status bar) where that takes you if
you click.

In fact if you read the TEXT on the Sourceforge page it tells you that the
download is starting automatically in 5 seconds.  "Your download will start
shortly" followed by "Your download will start in 5 seconds". Which
counts down to zero when it finally starts.

I have installed an adverts blocker in my browser so I don't even see
whatever 3rd party advert banner the site might want to show me.

Hi Fernando,
Sorry - as my reply is off topic, but could not resist commenting :)

The times Orwell was talking about have always been on earth, at least 
for the last several thousand years.
There is an age, a season of time, lasting 1.76 million years, as 
recorded in the ancient scripture called

The Veda.
That season of time is called Satya Yuga (The Age of Truth). It will 
dawn  426,973 years after this year.

Victor,

Did you not see a display such as the one I just captured?  It might be in a 
different language and offer the software for a different operating system.

Please tell us

 1. What Browser you are using.
 2. What native language your browser is set for.
 3. What is the operating system of the computer you are using.

It may be that one of those is causing an incorrect or incomplete download page 
to be presented to you.

Re: Apache OpenOffice 4.1.2 released

Just one thought, though, when you click on the download button, it will 
transfer you to the sourceforge site.  DO NOT click on any download 
button on the sourceforge site.  Just wait a few seconds and your 
download will begin.  It really annoys me how sourceforge puts all those 
other download links on the open office download page, as well as all 
the others pages they host.  I also hear that many of those other links 
are to dangerous programs including spyware.  I would be very happy if I 
heard that Apache had stopped using the sourceforge link.  Every time 
this subject comes up, someone always jumps in to defend them saying 
they no longer do that, but the problems with their site continue.
