I just upgraded from SM 2.15 to 2.20. Now, when I activate java (default
state being inactive) , the browser overrides my selection. What do I
need to do to gain control over my own computing decisions?
By "Java" do you mean "Java Platform" or "Java Deployment Toolkit?"
If it's the first that is being blocked, you probably need to update
your Java -- current version is Java 7 update 25.
I'm referring to the "normal user application" of java, so I assume that
means java platform. I have the latest version installed.
Windows XP SP3
SeaMonkey 2.20
Java J2SE RTE 7 update 25
When I visit a Web page that requires Java, I often get a popup dialogue
asking whether I really want to use it. The popup is the same as I see
when I want to execute an installer file to install or update software
while SeaMonkey is not even running.
This is a Windows issue, not a SeaMonkey issue. Although I check the
box for Windows to remember that I do want to run Java, Windows often
forgets.
It's at least partly a SeaMonkey issue. I agree that the pop-up you
refer to is a Windows pop-up. I get it when I want to use java with
Win7/IE10, and I've seen it with SM 2.20 (but not all the time because
the process doesn't usually get that far). But when I start java in
Palemoon java works as it should, no popup or other problems. Also,
since I enable java through a checkbox in prefbar on the GUI, I can see
the checkmark disappear simultaneously with clicking the app to launch
java. It never gets the chance to be "questioned" by Windows.
