Win-XP 3rd. SM 2.0
OK, here's a strange one. I've even had an e-mail exchange with the site
and received really weird advice, more about that below.
The site is http://www.puzzability.com/puzzles/index.shtml . When I
click on any of the java encoded puzzles (for instance Common Knowledge)
java fails to work giving an error message "Error. Click for details"
with a lot of gobbledegook which means nothing to me. This even after
reloading the most current version of java for Mozilla. The same exact
thing happens with Firefox and Google Chrome. The site does work fine in
IE 7.0, however. But, and here's the strange thing, when I finally
figured out how to add Coral IETab to SM 2.0 and used it, it still
doesn't work with SM 2.0: it doesn't give the same java error message;
but the java logo just keeps spinning and nothing happens.
I contacted the support person at the site and she wrote me that they
were sorry about this; but a possible workaround that "works for others"
was IE Tab. Haha.
Anybody else noticing this? Any ideas?
At least now the site is working in SM 2.0 and Firefox using the
appropriate IE Tab add-ons. It still shows the Java error with Google
Chrome and SM 2.0 in normal mode. Apparently from responses to this
thread the Java loading flaw in SM 2.0 is replicatable; but it doesn't
occur with SM 1.1.18. I'm sort of curious as to what SM 2.0 has changed
that makes it not load Java on this site the same way?
Obviously, nobody wants to deal with this bug...but just for
giggles, here's the really strange thing. Starting the process of
accessing this site over again this week, when I try using SM 2.0
with Coral IE Tab for this site the Java logo just keeps spinning
and nothing happens. If I THEN close SeaMonkey and open Firefox 3.5
and load this same page using IE Tab the page loads correctly. If I
THEN close Firefox and THEN open SeaMonkey 2.0 AGAIN and load this
site using Coral IE Tab, the site works fine (incidentally this is
the same procedure that I used last week described in the paragraph
above...when the page didn't load today I decided to replicate my
procedure of last week and lo and behold it worked again.) What is
Firefox doing to affect my Java settings to make them finally work
with SM 2.0?
