Java not working in browser

Hi there! A couple of weeks ago, I started having trouble with Java functions, such as drop-down menus and popups. Most of the time, they simply don't work. I haven't changed anything on my computer, so I don't know what is causing the trouble. I did a virus scan, but everything looks OK. At the recommendation of a friend, I tried uninstalling and downloading the latest J2SE development kit. That slightly changed the problem but did not fix it. Do I need to get an older version or something? I'm running Windows XP.
I would really appreciate any help on this matter! I'm only marginally tech-savvy, so please keep that in mind when responding. Thank you so much! :-)

Are you sure that the code you wrote would give the desired ouput.I don;t know if we again need to install a java plug in for the browser after you install the jdk but just make sure that the java plug in is in place.Did you run your code on some other compute and see if it gives the desired output?

1. the browser button not working in browser when I run the project from Netbeans under "run in browser" mode. however under "standard execution" mode, everything is fine.
2. can not run the jar file in the project's dist directory directly. in other word, I can not run the jar file outside of Netbeans.

thanks for your reply but I need more specific operation.
maybe I am not very clear about the problem one. I mean when I run the code in standard mode, if I click the browse button, a window will pop out and I can choose a video file from my local harddisk. but if I run it in "web start execution" mode and "run in browser" mode. the browse button make no response when I click it.

E72 - Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V not working in browser

yesterday i updated my nokia e72 mobile to latest firmware 31 , after that Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V and Ctrl+A shortcut keys are not working in browser. which have made me feel as bad as typing the same text again and again (usfel in blogging or web messaging).
ALthough these shortcut keys are working in notes and sms application, but not in browser and Quick office applications (word, ecxel etc).
Can some one tell , how to fix it. or do i need to wait for next firware update. firmware 31 was released on 31 of march 2010. and today is 26th of May. almost two months have passed, and nokia has not yet released patch for this bug ....
Nokia, how long i need to wait ?, for this bug fix release.

(Had to edit because didn't read previous post clearly.)
I originally thought this was a problem of Quick office 6.2.217 Nokia_S603.2. I think it is a Nokia firmware problem as the previous post had stated.

Java session is not working in browser sometimes

Hi,
In some PC, sometimes session is not working properly in browser.
In JSP, I am creating the session like below
session = request.getSession(true);
session.putValue("loginid",login);
But in next page, it is showing null value.
I have checked the browser setting... cookies are enabled... everything is ok in browser setting..
In our company, this issue is coming in some of PC not all in all the PC
If we format the harddisk & again reinstall the OS, it starts working.
Anyone can pls help me on this?. This is very urgent.
Regards

As of Version 2.2 putValue(java.lang.String name,
java.lang.Object value) has been deprecated.
Use session.setAttribute("loginid",login) instead of putValue()

Applet with Image not working in Browser, works fine in Appletviewer

Hi,
I encountered a problem , running my Applet in a browser. (IE and Firefox, ame problem).
When I use an ImageIcon, it doesnot work. in a browser.(When I remove the icon, it's oke)
In Appletviewer it works fine. In the browser I first got a security-exception.
I dealed with that by signing the jar (with the test certificate).
Now the browser's java console is not showin any faults, but the applet is showing no picture at all.
Only the text of the label is shown.
Can someone help me?
I downgraded the class to a very simple form, shown underneath. This runs fine in Appletviewer, but not in a Browser.
Best Regards
Remco

I have recently had the same problem, after lots of searching, I found that only Java 1.1 is supported by browsers, leaving out everything else including swing. So if you cant play the applet through your browser you need to download the appropriate patch i think about 5mbs.
You should find one at java.sun.com/getjava/download.html
Mine worked fine afterwards

Java not working in Internet Explorer

I normally use another browser (Google Chrome) but need to use Internet Explorer for a particular online banking service. This service requires a Java applet.
I have the current Java environment (as at 21.3.12), SE 6 Update 31.
Java works in Chrome but does not work in IE8 or IE9.
I have un-installed and re-installed Java several times, tried going back to IE8, turned off ActiveX filtering, confirmed Java scripting is on, checked add-ins are managed correctly and so on and so on, without success. Given Java works it is not a Java
issue but must be an IE issue.
Are there any additional steps or diagnostics I can run to try to identify the problem as I need this to be resolved for the purposes of running my business.
Many thanks!

Hi guys.
I'm having an issue like this and none of the solutions above helped me.
I'm trying to open a specific web page that is not working with Java only on Internet Explorer (7, 8 nor 9). If I try to open in Google Chrome or Firefox it goes fine.
I've tried various versions of Java and all my tries were done both on Windows XP Professional and Windows 7 Professional.
The weird thing is that when I test it through Java webpage or some other page, it goes fine. It is not working only for this specific webpage.
This is the webpage:
http://iweb03ds.magnaclosures.com/stconf.nsf/meeting/mid3FC5EBB1D59C830685257A2900420436
It is a meeting webpage for our company to present their work to our clients and suppliers. I've also followed their own step-by-step advises, but no good either.
Could anyone help me on that?

Clientless VPN and Java not working correctly

In a recent discovery we found that the newest version of java will not work with our Cisco SSLVPN setup
We are using an ASA5510 with 8.0.4 IOS version and 6.1.3 ADSM version and most users use an mstsc.exe smart tunnel to rdp into our terminal server farm.
Our laptops are being imaged with Java 6 update 3 (this works fine) then upgraded to Java 6 update 11, after which the smart tunnel appears to launch but a connection cannot be established. Reinstalling the older version of Java resolves the problem.
I was wondering if anyone else has encountered a similar problem and found a workaround. Currently, company equipment is not being upgraded to the latest version of Java but personal equipment is a different story.

To get the old downloader back follow the directions below.
# In the [[Location bar autocomplete|Location bar]], type '''about:config''' and press '''Enter'''. The about:config "''This might void your warranty!''" warning page may appear.
# Click '''I'll be careful, I promise!''', to continue to the about:config page.
# Filter '''browser.download.useToolkitIT'''.
# Double click and '''make sure it says true.'''
# You now have the classic downloader back! Yay!
Any issues or confused?

Applet work well in appletviewer but do not work within browser

hi, i created an applet that works well in appletviewer,but it does not work within a firefox browser, it issue a message: java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.io.FilePermission imgDir/vsam.jpg read). What can i do to solve this issue please ?

sign the applet, use doprivileged and trust the applet when you open it.
Use htmlconverter in jdk/bin folder to convert you applet so it uses
object tag instead of applet so IE won't try to run it with msjvm.
Signing applets:

Some browser links not working - any browser, but just on my mac

I have a strange issue. Over the last while certain page links on browser pages (which seem to be Java script links) won't work in any of my 5 browsers. If I put the same page in to any of my laptop's or my wife's browsers, the links work fine.
For example, I just tried to order some stuff via Staples, and whenever I tried to go to the next screen via a button, nothing happened. Even if I switched User Agents in Safari or Firefox, the "next" button didn't work. Same in Chrome, Camino, Flock and Opera on the same pages. I have noticed lots of drop down menus are not working properly either on many sites.
I figure some bit of OS code must be either blocking or misreading the instruction, but what?
Any ideas? Any input would be greatly appreciated!!

errmm... i'm not sure why you are fiddling with java and system extensions...
java has nothing to do with javascript despite the name (you can blame sun for that) the javascript engine is an integral part of the browser not a separate extension.
Java on the other hand is an entirely separate entity and language that is independent of any one browser and is installed on the OS.
Javascript is commonly used in webpages (all most all these days) where as java is hardly used at all and is usually confined to little "applets" that run separately from the rest of the page.
If you suspect that it is something to do with your settings/preferences in your library then the easiest way to find out is by creating a new User account (go to system preferences> users> and add a user.) Then log into that account and try the browsers in there.
If you really think that it has something to do with system extensions then you can disable them by moving them out of the extensions directory (/System/Library/Extensions/) However i must stress that unless you know what you are doing and know what the extension does that you are moving to not do so... you can easily render your system unbootable if you move the wrong extension... unless you have installed a 3rd party system extension there shouldn't be anything in that directory that isn't meant to be there (this is a very different system from OS 9).
However there are internet plugins that may be interfering with your browsers, you can find these in /Library/Internet Plugins/ you can disable these by moving them also... the defaults are various flash, java, shockwave, quartz and quicktime files.

HT202447 java not working after updated Java 7 Update 21 what do I have to do to make java work with safari?

After updating my Java to the latest version Java 7 Update 21, it's not working with my Safari browser anymore. Update works with Firefox. How can I solve this problem?

Update: This time, when I got the window informing me that my plug-in was inactive, I double clicked on the sentence regarding the inactive plug-in and it solved the problem. Double clicking in that window caused the plug-to activate and my java is now back up and running. Really, it would have been nice to have a "click here to activate" option or some such notice that made this less painful!

10.6.8 Java not working. "No compatible version of Java 1.5 is available"

Hey Guys
Firstly I would like to thank you for clicking this question and would ask you please if you have a solution to my problem answer whatever you can. Anyway lets get on with it.
Recently I have been having a problem on my macbook. I am running 10.6.8 as said in title. Previously i was having an inactive plugin error going on and the software update said there were no newer versions available. However when looking for a solution for this by clearing my java cache ect. i somehow ended up with this problem. Whenever I try to run a java based application such as minecraft it says "Cannot launch "Minecraft" No compatible version of Java 1.5+ is avaiable." Also when from this menu i try to open Java Preferences it says "You can't use this version of the application Java Preferences with this version of Mac Os X. You have Mac OS X 10.6.8. The application requires Mac OS X 10.7 or later." I did not download java 1.7 or a different version of Java Preferences outside of the software update. If you have any idea of what's going on please help me out. I am struggling to get on with work and games without java even working.
Thanks for your help
Will

Are you up to date with the updates?
Update for Snow Leopard users:
Apple issued update 12 for Java for OS 10.6:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1573
Note: On systems that have not already installed Java for Mac OS X 10.6 update 9 or later, this update will configure web browsers to not automatically run Java applets. Java applets may be re-enabled by clicking the region labeled "Inactive plug-in" on a web page. If no applets have been run for an extended period of time, the Java web plug-in will deactivate.
If, after installing Java for OS X 2013-002 and the latest version of Java 7 from Oracle, you want to disable Java 7 and re-enable the Apple-provided Java SE 6 web plug-in and Web Start functionality, follow these steps:

The standard recommendation is for users to turn off Java except when they have to use it on known and trusted websites (like their bank). Javascript, which is unrelated despite the name, can be left on.

Consuming PI Webservice from Webdynpro Java Not working

Hello SAP,
Environment: CE 7.2.
Resolution expected immediately, Helpful answer is highly appreciated.
Is the namespace should not exceed 60char for PI Webservice, for executing the webservice from Webdynpro Java.
I tried with all the options in executing the PI Service from Webdynpro Java, None of the options worked. I am facing the below error while I was calling the PI Webservice.
I don't see any problem from Webdynpro Java, what ever the procedure I have followed is the standard procedure.
Fortunately when I execute the service from Webservice Navigator, it is working as expected. The same webservice when I consume it from Webdynpro Java it is not working
Options tried so far:
1) Published the Services to Service Registry and there by consuming the PI Service from Service Registry - Not worked
2) Tweaked the URL with few options - Not worked (Tweaking the URL, ex: portType, Binding)
3) Changing the Business Systems in PI and there after calling the service - Not worked
4) Initializing the code, instead of creating Service Controller and calling the PI Service - Not worked.
5) Created a Provider System and tried to call the PI Webservice from Provider System - Not Worked
For all the Options, I am facing the same error which is provided in the screenshot.
Below procedure which I have followed for calling the PI Webservice:
1) Created Adaptive Webservice Model
2) Provided PI Webservice URL (It prompts for PI System UserId and Password)
3) Selected Option - No Service Group Configuration
4) Provided Logical Destination
6) Completed creation of Model
7) Added the model as a UsedModel
8) Right Click on Comp Contr. and selected Apply Template and Created a ServiceController for the model (Entire mapping to comp contr, Initializing the nodes is taken care by Service Contr.)
9) Created an Template Action button and there by calling execute method which is auto rendered from CompContr..
10) Build the project.
11) Activated the code and Run the Application.
12) Getting the below error which is showed in the message.
ERROR MESSAGE:
Exception on execution of web service on destination 'GetPIHRPeopleData' for operation 'SI_CreateHRPeopleData_OS' in interface 'SI_CreatePeopleCompany_OS'

Hi Sankar,
If the webservice is working fine in the Wsnavigator then there is some problem with importing the webservice in webdynpro for Java. Please check the required parameter for creating the Adaptive Webservice Model. After adding in the used model and compoent controller binding, you need to write code for to execute the webservice model.
Please check the code for initialization and execution for the webservice and then test it.
Best Regards,

Upgraded to Firefox 4 and now the program I many alarm dealers use with Rapid Response Monitoring no longer works. RR Tech support said it had something to do with a change in Java not working with Firef 4

Rapid Response Monitoring Center developed a program for their dealers to log on to the main frame and look at customer info. The program now has a disclaimer on the log-on page Does not work with FireFox 4. RR tech support said it had to do with Java functions that were not continued in FF4. I can log on but the program will no longer display customer history or anything that seems to have a data base behind the function tab.
See www.rapidweb2000.com or call 1-800-932-3822 and ask for tech support for additional info about what they have found is the problem.

Id this the HP SimplePass Identity manager or Digital Persona fingerprint reader? If it is, the company that make the fingerprint reader have abandoned it. For more details see https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/799388

Java Not Working, And Still No Answers. What Gives?

Okay, decided to start this topic anew, since the only response I got to the other one was a post calling me "rude and impatient" (I guess that's what they're calling "persistence" nowadays..) , instead of...well...ignoring my admittedly pushy and harsh tone and actually being helpful. However, for the sake of it, I do apologize for my attitude in my last topic.
But I digress, let's start off on a new foot, eh? On to the problem that is STILL at hand(in other words, "patience" hasn't gotten me jack, not even a "we don't know yet"):
So last night (10 PM January 20th), the Firefox Plugin Checker said that my Java version was outdated. I also got a pop-up saying that my current version of Java at the time (Java 7 update 10) had vulnerabilities. So to try and fix this, I went to the Java page and downloaded the update (Java 7 update 11).
To check and see if my update was working, I went to Java's check page, as well as another page I use. And here I discovered a problem. I got a notification that an old version of Java had been detected, and another prompt to download the current version (which I had already done). So I erased all versions of Java from my control panel, and tried to check it again. And when I did, I got this: http://oi50.tinypic.com/35b6xx2.jpg and http://oi47.tinypic.com/15fg37p.jpg.
As you can see, both pages tell me that I need to install a missing plugin of some sort. So, thinking this would resolve the issue, I clicked the Install Missing Plugin button. This is what it told me was missing: http://oi45.tinypic.com/302uwbl.jpg. So I clicked next to install it.... and got this: http://oi45.tinypic.com/2cici0x.jpg, which I assume means that the plugin did not install. So I pressed Manual Install... and was lead/linked right back to the Java download page (where it all began, and what doesn't seem to be working in the first place)
I go to check my plugins again (Just to make sure and also for extra information), and it appears to say that my Java version is current (is that what "Java Deployment Toolkit 7.0.110.21" is? I don't know, I am not good at technology at all. Either way, here is what it looks like: http://oi48.tinypic.com/4kxzz4.jpg). So...if it is current, why is it not working (i.e. I am unable to play games, DO MY COLLEGE CLASSWORK, or play Java-based games)?
If it helps anything, here is what my control panel looks like in regards to Java right now: http://oi45.tinypic.com/2qlxu9t.jpg Am I missing anything that would make Java work?
And before anyone says that Java is not essential: It may be that way to you, but I need Java to do classwork for college. Veterinary college.
So, in short, what is going on with Java, and how can I fix it?
EDITEDITEDIT: I Have found that I can do my classwork without Java. HOWEVER, this DOES NOT mean that the problem is solved or over with. I STILL WANT TO KNOW HOW TO FIX THIS PROBLEM AND GET JAVA TO WORK. Even if I never actually need it, I would still like to have a (working!!!) Java version because of two reasons: 1) I would rather have such a program and not need it, than need such a program and not have it, and 2) aesthetics. Sorry to say, but I am very particular about how things look when it comes to my belongings, and the fact that Java is messing up is making me actually stressed. In short, I still want the above issue solved, even if it's just purely for the sake of Peace Of Mind.
Another note: I would (please!) appreciate a timely response on this matter. Even if the response is a "We don't know what the issue is and/or we are working to solve this issue.", that would satisfy me for the time being. I would just like a semi-timely response that would let me know that FF/contributors here have read the above and actually give a semblance of a care about their userbase.
Thank You.

'''ponyparty, '''
The first prompt you see in Firefox to activate Java is because Java is currently on the Mozilla blocklist ( the "Hot Topic" article [[How to use Java if it's been blocked]] explains the reason for block and how to activate Java, including how to bypass the plugin activation prompt for trusted sites).
cor-el is right about why you are seeing a second [http://oi48.tinypic.com/de8f8y.jpg Java "Security Warning"] when trying to view Java applets, that you have to click to run. This is a ''' Java''' security feature and not anything Firefox does.
Try the same Java sites in Internet Explorer .... don't you also see the Java "Security Warning?" If you want to lower your Java security back to "Medium" in the Java Control Panel, see http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/jweb/jcp.html#security for details. That's up to you but I would leave it on "High " since Java 7 is still basically insecure, according to the reports I've seen and [https://blog.mozilla.org/security/2013/01/11/protecting-users-against-java-vulnerability/ this "Protecting Users Against Java Vulnerability]" Mozilla blog post.
If the second Java prompt is your only remaining issue then your problem is really solved, since it is a new Java security feature and not anything in Firefox.

Java not working after update 1.6.0_26

Hello knowledgable people. I have a MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard, Safari with latest [automatic] updates. Java updated yesterday to 1.6.0_26 and all web content (java/plug-ins/scripts) preferences are enabled, but java is not working (I have checked multiple sites, and non-java websites are okay) since the update, and a Microsoft Office update failed to install today (recognizing of course that this may be a separate issue). I appreciate any ideas about this that you may have, particularly those that do no require wiping my computer and starting over. Thanks.

Check Safari / Preferences - Extensions. Turn that off if you have any installed, try a site with Java.
Might be an incompatible Safari plugin. Back to Safari / Preferences - Security. Deselect: Enable Plugins
Quit then relaunch Safari to test.
If it's not Extensions or third party plugins, install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo. See if that helps the Java issue.
If you are having problems installing software, run Disk Utility, verify and if necessary, repair the start disk.
