How to open/download a .java file instead of it opening as a txt in a new Firefox tab?

Hi,
I need to download/open on my computer a .java file, but Firefox does not give me an "Open" or "Download" box, instead, it opens the java file as text in a new tab.
How do I download/open it on my computer?

I assume that you are referring to a JavaScript file.
Java and JavaScript are different languages.
To avoid confusion, see:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/JavaScript_is_not_Java
If the server sends the file as text/plain then Firefox will open the file in a tab if you left click and not offer to download/save the file.
In that case you need to save the file via the right-click context menu or the File menu.
You will have to right-click the link and use "Save Link As" to save such a file directly instead of left-clicking the link.

Have recently updated Adobe Reader and now unable to open downloaded documents - Message received is could not open 'file name.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded). When I check the file it shows Zero KB downloaded but the file appears - any suggestions?

Obviously your download was not successful.
What is your operating system? How exactly do you download such files?

How to save downloaded update installer files

How can I locate a downloaded update installer file so I can save it and use to install on another mac without having to download all over again? Today I downloaded updates for OS X and also for Office 2011. The first is over 2GB and the second around 300MB. I have installed on my Macbook Pro, but I have another 3 units to update. I live in a 3rd world country with very slow internet and it takes me days to download such files.

Grateful for you having replied but for some reason I seem unable to open your message "Re: How to save downloaded update installer files". Waikato99

1. how to test the simple .java file in cactus.

Hi,
It is because the converter works on byte code and it only supports a subset of the Java language (see the JC specifications). It is kind of like compiling you code on Java 6 and trying to run it on Java 5. The JCDK outlines the required compiler version.
Cheers,

How to compile and run java files on a mac using command line?

can someone tell me or link me to some article on how to compile and run java files from command line on a mac? I have mac OS X leopard

What do you mean by "where to put them" ? What do you want to put anywhere ?
Have you read Peter's comment in brackets ? Perhaps you have a classpath problem ?

How can i let my java application closes the other opened windows

how can i let my java application closes the other opened windows: like any other Microsoft Internet Explorer windows ... provided that my java application is not the one i used to open those other windows.... thanks in advance

you'll have to use JNI to access the windowAPI
then you need a list of window handles ... I think there was a function called getWindow and in order to close them you use sendMessage .... for details check out msdn (microsoft developer network)
somwhere I saw a tool called JUtil, which might help you getting started on accessing the win api from java

How do you run another Java file from a master Java file?

We're making a game in Java at school, and we need to know how we can run a Java file from another one - like inside the master Java file, we need to have a command to run game.java (something like that). Thanks!

We're making a game in Java at school, and we need to know how we can run a Java file from another one - like inside the master Java file, we need to have a command to run game.java (something like that). Thanks!One doesn't "run a Java file", and there's no conventional definition of "master Java file". If you want to call the main() method of another class, just make sure the class is in your classpath and call the method. If you want to start up a separate JVM with that class as a process, use Runtime.exec() or similar method.

No need to post your billing info here. This is a public forum. In any case, have you tried to check with the developer for support to get it going first? What do you have to lose.
In any case, here is maybe where you want to correspond with Apple directly:
