Sun java script to support games sites

which javascript do i need to support game sites such as pogo?
i had sun javascript when i had windows 95, had very few problems.
about a week ago ,i replaced win 95 with win98, since then , nothing but problems.pogo games especially rely on players to have sun javascript to be able to play the games.
i know there is conflict between sun and microsoft, but why should we as customers of both to be left in a proverbial limbo?
we cannot have the games without microsoft, and we cannot play the games witout sun javascript.
are we just pawns to the computer industry because of greed?
i do not understand why sun has not responded, when i inquired for the information i asked for, requesting which javascript i need to enjoy the puter games i play.
should someone respond to this, please do so in terms a newbie can understand, computer language is way too cofusing for someone who was born over 60 years ago, and has only had a computer for about a year.
confused no end here.

Why SHOULDN'T the question be posed here on what you say is a JAVA forum? First of all pogo and java each are holdoing one end of the proverbial "stick". It doesn't matter who doesn't talk to who, btoh are at fault because neither wants to go through the trouble to facilitate the other. I myself was a happy pogo camper until Java (JRE) upgraded and at the same time IE8 beta 2 came out and also upgrades were made to IE7 also.
So why shouldn't a little heat be put on SUN and it's java monster for upgrading BEYOND the capabilities of IE and pogo....and microsoft as a whole.
Because the problem is POGO not Java.
If you pump gas at the gas station and the gas is actually water do you expect the car manufacter to fix your car?
And if they gave you the car for free would you expect them to fix it then?
By the way if you want to pay Sun to fix your computer I am certain that Sun Sales would be happy to start negotiating a contract.
bottom line sun...java...and their subsidiaries, as smart as they are.....figuratively made parts for a machine that hasn't been invented yet. That my friends is where the problem lies.
Fact....older versions of JRE work better with many gaming communities, but the new ones are needed to support the big corporate programming contracts. Try running an older version for games...or even remove JRE from your pc and install the older MS VM instead.
Then don't upgrade.
Face it...we in the gaming community are just pee-ons and our complaints don't rate compared with the need to develope platforms which can be sold to the institutions with the deepest pockets.
SUN/JAVA....you're getting a bad "rep".
whatch...this post will be quaranteened in a heartbeat!You want to play POGO and because it doesn't work you going to stop programming in Java?
Do you play games written in other languages? Have you read of the compatibility problems and upgrade problems with them? Do you expect all game programming to stop because every language has a problem with some people?

  • When will Sun begin to Support Games Dev?

    As the title states, when will Sun start to seriously support games development. With 1.5, 1.6, 2.0???
    Must improve the VM, for speed.
    Will they ever add LWJGL to the API, with improvements of course?
    I personally think Java is a great language and hope to develop many games and maybe one day stick it to M$ and their developers.

    Not so much a question of running the game on any platform of one CD (although I think that might actually increase sales in that funny way that good ideas often do) but you certainly would gain from developers being able to use a single lot of code across many platforms.
    I found this in a PC Zone article about the forthcoming Matrix game a couple of months ago:
    ... with a simultaneous PC, GameCube, Xbox and PS2 release in plan, isn't there a chance that PC owners will be saddled with another massively console-oriented title? Not so, says Dave [ Perry ] who explains that shiny's ground-breaking cross-platform engine was designed from the ground up to use every machine to its full potential.

    "Every minute spent making the game causes the results to appear on all four platforms. No matter what platform you're using, the game engine is squeezing every last bit of performance out of the hardware."
    That's what I'm talking about- it's a bit late now, but if Sun had been clever it could have been Java doing that.

  • Sun Java Web Server7 admin site doesnt start!!!

    Hi,
    i have installed Sun Java Web Server7 3 months ago.
    yesterday i was trying to look at the site configuration and wanted to start the server-admin interface.
    for some reason when i am running the command admin-server/bin/startserv the command end and return to the shell without any output.
    i have looked at the error and access logs after defining the error log level to finest and no output there also.
    i run netstat and looked at the process and there isnt any service listening on the management port.
    can someone please give me direction on debuging this problem.
    thanks in advanced

    Hi
    What is the version of WebServer you are using. I see admin-server as a service, i guess your version is Web Server 7.0u2 which has SMF support.
    During the installation if you have enabled SMF Solaris 10 OS creates SMF service for each instance of Web Server.
    Use the stopserv script and try to stop the admin-server and Web Server instances.
    Now run the following command svcs | grep admin-server and svcs | grep https. This should not show any services running.
    Now start the admin-server using $(Install_dir)/admin-server/bin/startserv and instance using ${install_dir}/<instance-directory>/bin/startserv
    Now run the following command svcs | grep admin-server. This should show the following output
    online 12:29:07 svc:/network/http:admin-server
    online 12:29:07 svc:/network/http:<instance-name>
    As you had mentioned in the previous replies it shows online*, which means currently the service in the starting state. Once the service started it will become online.
    If there is any problem starting the service, running the command svcs -xv will give the error output why the service went to maintenance. Please try the above and let me know what output you get for the above commands.

  • Web site with Java Scripts ( on iphone4)

    try to open a web site with Java scripts , but it just show empty on the scripts section , anyone can help ? (on iphone 4 with iOS 4.1)

    Hi, welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Web pages that make use of Javascript should work just fine. Those that have embedded Java applications won't. Java & Javascript are two different animals despite the similarity in the names. Like Flash, Java is not supported on iOS.

  • How do I show visitors w/o Java "You need java script enabled to view this site" ?

    I use Firefox as my browser and through the use of NoScript generally do not have Java Scripting active. Although I can often tell just by the behavior of a page I visit that I need to enable some Javascripts, I often get a clear message from the website itself - something like "we see that you do not have Java script enabled, please do so" or perhaps "without Javascript you cannot view this site properly."
    Now, I can just put a general message on the "splash page" saying "this website requires Java script to be enabled" for every visitor to see, but I would rather have the message just for those that need to see it because Java script is disabled.  How do I do that?
    Thanks in advance.
    Karen

    Thank you Marion, I have done that (with you name attached, it was after all your idea!
    BUT - I have discovered the following: dropping the "noscript text on the page to create an HTML object works and the "your browser. . ." text appears when Javascript is turned off, and just where I want it !
    Now I just have to teach myself enough coding that I can set the text size and color and I'll drop this baby on every page. Whoopee! 
    This is the script I used. I put a several extra spaces in the code here cause I wasn't sure what effect it would have  on the post and I don't know how to insert one of those script windows in the post.
    <script type="text/javascript">
    document.write()
    </script>
    <  noscript  >Your browser does not support JavaScript!<  /noscript  >

  • Highest supported Sun java for forms 10.1.2.0.2?

    Hello everyone,
    According to Oracle's "client platform statement of direction 10gr2" web page, the highest officially supported version of Sun java for our environment (XP, IE 6, Forms 10.1.2.0.2) is 1.5.0_06. Is this indeed correct? The Sun site has info that this version has the 2007 USA DST changes too.
    We are looking into moving from jinitiator to Sun java and we want to make sure we stay supported. I have tested with 1.6 and my app worked ok, but if it's not offically supported, the powers that be will not allow it.
    Thanks for any info,
    Gary

    I believe you need to install forms/reports patchset 3 10.1.2.3 for sun java, plus support for new browsers and vista IE8. going forward no more jinitiator anyway

  • I am still having problems accessing java script sites.  Anyone else having this problem?

    I am still having problems accessing java script sites.  Anyone else having this problem?

    Javascript can be left on, but Java (which is something very different) should generally be turned off.
    Apple barred Java from running on Macs, leaving companies that rely on Java plug-ins out in the cold.
    Apple blocked Java 7 Update 11 by adding it to the banned list in XProtect.
    This was the second time in two weeks that Apple has blocked Oracle's code from running on Macs. This time Java is blocked through Apple's XProtect anti-malware feature.
    Java has come under fire as the means by which hackers have been able to gain control of computers. In April 2012 more than 600,000 Macs were reported to have been infected with a Flashback Trojan horse that was being installed on people's computers with the help of Java exploits. Then in August Macs were again at risk due to a flaw in Java, this time around, there was good news for Mac users: Thanks to changes Apple has made, most of us were safe from the threat.
    Unwilling to leave its customers open to potential threats Apple decided it's safer to block Java entirely.
    Macs running OS X Snow Leopard and beyond are affected.
    UPDATE for those running Lion or Mountain Lion:
    Oracle on Friday February 1 released a new version reportedly addressing vulnerabilities seen with the last build.
    Apple disabled Java 7 through the OS X XProtect anti-malware system, requiring users to have at least version "1.7.0_10-b19" installed on their Macs. The release dated February 1 carries the designation "1.7.0_13-b20," meeting Apple's requirements.
    Oracle "strongly recommends" applying the CPU fixes as soon as possible, saying that the latest Critical Patch Update contains 50 new security fixes across all Jave SE products.
    Update foror Snow Leopard users:
    Apple have 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.

  • Sun Java Web Proxy v3.6 SP8 supported?

    Hi,
    I'm trying to find out if the Sun Java Web Proxy v3.6 SP8 is supported by Sun. I haven't been able to find any supported software listing on Sun's websites.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Is there anywhere on the Sun site that documents this?

    You of course know that JavaScript is entirely different from Java and [JSP (JavaServer Pages)|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JavaServer_Pages]?

  • Java script problems preventing log in to certain web sites

    Java problems preventing log-in to certain web sites when using Safari or Chrome browsers

    I am unable to log into certain websites uaing Safari, Google Chrome and FIrefox.
    Safari just gives me a red exclamation mark.
    Google Chrome does the same thing.
    Firefox at least gives me this error message:
    "Your browser does not have the Sun Java system component installed or it is incorrectly installed. In order to run the platform, please download and install the latest version by clicking  here."
    So i click on the link and it takes me here:
    http://www.java.com/en/
    which is a download site for the latest version of Java. When i click on the download button i get taken to this website:
    http://www.java.com/en/download/apple_manual.jsp?locale=en
    which basically says that "Apple supplies their own version of Java". There is a link to the Apple store and instructions on how to get the latest software updates for your operating system (mine is OS X 10.6.8 - Snow Leopard).
    I have the latest version of all updates, there is nothing for me to update!!
    So i search the Apple store support area for the latest version of Java and download that (Java For Mac OS X 10.6 Update 8). Turns out i already have this version on my Mac. Still doesnt work!!!
    Am not impressed. I read somewhere that Apple is always behind in its Java updates and if a website you are trying to access has a later version, well, to bad for you. If that is the case that is very poor form for a company with record Billion dollar profits. This experience has put me off purchasing further Macs.

  • How to fetch Properties of all Survey Lists from site collection using Java Script in SharePoint 2013

    Hi,
    I am trying to fetch properties of all lists of "Survey Type" from my site collection in SharePoint 2013 using script editor web part. I am able to fetch properties of one list by mentioning its name explicitly in code but not all survey
    list.
    My task is to display Survey name , description ,Time created and URLs of all survey lists using java script in script editor web part.
    And let me know , if there is any other OOB feature of SharePoint 2013 to achieve the same. 
    Here is the code  :
    <script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    SP.SOD.executeFunc('sp.js', 'SP.ClientContext', sharePointReady);
    function sharePointReady() {
         GetSurveyList();
     function GetSurveyList() {
            var spListTitle = " List Name";
             var clientContext = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
            var oWeb = clientContext.get_web();
            this.surveyList = oWeb.get_lists().getByTitle(spListTitle);
            clientContext.load(surveyList);
            clientContext.executeQueryAsync(Function.createDelegate(this, this.GetListProperties),Function.createDelegate(this, this.onFailure));
     function GetListProperties() {
            $("#SurveyList").text("");
            var surveyTable = "<table border=1>";
            surveyTable = surveyTable.concat("<tr><td>Survey Name</td>");
            surveyTable = surveyTable.concat("<td>Survey Description</td>");
            surveyTable = surveyTable.concat("<td>Time Created</td>");
            surveyTable = surveyTable.concat("<tr><td>" + surveyList.get_title() + "</td>");
            surveyTable = surveyTable.concat("<td>" + surveyList.get_description() + "</td>");
            surveyTable = surveyTable.concat("<td>" + surveyList.get_created().format("MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm tt")+ "</td>");
                 surveyTable = surveyTable.concat("</table>");
            $("#SurveyList").append(surveyTable);
        function onFailure(sender, args) {
            alert('Request failed. ' + args.get_message() + '\n' + args.get_stackTrace());
