Please install the latest version from Java.com and try again." It worked fine with SM2.0.14I'm not getting any problem. However, I recall that I had to reset the Java checkbox in my preferences after going from SM 2.0.14 to SM 2.1 (or was it from SM 2.1 to 2.2?). 1. On the menu bar, go to [Edit> Preferences]. 2. On the left side of the Preferences window under Category, go to [Advanced]. 3. On the Advanced pane, make sure the Enable Java checkbox is checked. 4. Then, on the left side of the Preferences window under Category, go to [Advanced> Scripts& Plugins]. 5. Make sure the checkbox for Browser is checked. You might also want to review and adjust what scripts are allowed to do.The only two checkboxes that I have checked are: Change status bar text Change images However, none of the checkboxes on the Scripts& Plugins pane -- including the Browser checkbox under "Enable JavaScript for" -- should have any connection to Java. Java and JavaScript are two completely different entities. On the SeaMonkey menu bar, go to [Help> About Plugins]. On the "Enabled plugins" page, scroll down to "Java(TM) Platform". What version number do you see? I have 6.0.260.3, but that's for Windows XP. You apparently are using a MAC. The Java download site says: "Apple supplies their own version of Java. Use the Software Update feature (available on the Apple menu) to check that you have the most up-to-date version of Java for your Mac."Try viewing<http://davesfiles.com/HTML/hex_decimal_color_picker.htm>. If that works, your problem might be the stockcharts.com Web site and not your setup. By the way, please bottom-post. That is, put your new reply below the quoted messages, not above. Some inhabitants of the news.mozilla.org newsgroup get very nasty and hostile when visitors don't follow that convention here. On the other hand, some Usenet newsgroups want you to top-post as you have been doing. This is mentioned in "Netiquette Guidelines" (RFC 1855) in Section 3.1.1, where it states:If you are sending a reply to a message or a posting be sure you summarize the original at the top of the message, or include just enough text of the original to give a context.I tried<http://davesfiles.com/HTML/hex_decimal_color_picker.htm> as you suggested. It produces a page, but how do I know if it is rendering properly?Maneuver the little ring in the large colored circle and the slider on the "Brightness" bar below the colored circle. The default is background color. You should see the background color in the rectangle under "Sample Document" change to match the position of the little ring, and you should see the number after "Brightness" change as you move the slider (0 at the far left and 100 at the far right). Also, the hex color-codes should change both to the right of the word "Background" and after "BGCOLOR" in the mark-up area just under the radio buttons. You select different radio buttons to see color changes for text, links, etc. I use this as an added test each time I get a new version of Java. Of course, I also use this to determine the color-codes to use on my Web pages and in Word documents.I don't think the link rendered correctly since there is no "little ring in the large colored circle" or "slider" or "radio buttons"... just some text.Okay, you have a problem with your configuration. I got what I described by selecting the link from your earlier reply, just to make sure that you had the correct link. One last suggestion before major surgery: Try running SeaMonkey in Safe Mode. If the installation did not provide a proper way to get that, my shortcut in Windows has C:\SeaMonkey2\seamonkey.exe -safe-mode Safe mode temporarily disables all extensions but not external plugins. If you still can't get it to work right with Safe Mode, I hate to suggest the following because I know it's a pain in the butt. However, I think you might want to remove both SeaMonkey and Java from your Mac, reboot, and then reinstall them. You don't have to remove the SeaMonkey profiles since the prior attempt at using Safe Mode has already proven that the problem is not in your profiles.
Maybe you installed Java Embedding Plugin : you must uninstall it !
Search for this two files on your Mac :
JavaEmbeddingPlugin.bundle
MRJPlugin.plugin
and just delete them. (You might find them in
/Applications/Firefox/Contents/MacOS/plugins or /Library/Internet
Plug-Ins ... or elsewhere)
