Hi

I am needing to test that a certain website is compatible with Firefox. A certain bit of functionality on this site requires ja certain version of java, which I have installed on my machine. This functionality works in IE and Chrome and also works in my personal machine using Firefox but for some reason does not work on my work machine, so I am suspecting it is to do with how firefox is installed on my work machine or security policies or something. Firefox does not detect my java version when I use the following url 'http://www.java.com/en/download/uninstallapplet.jsp'. For Chrome and IE the correct version of java is returned.

Do you have any idea of what could be causing this issue?

Thanks.

Tam.

Hi. Sorry I had the java plugin set to 'Never Activate' in the addons section. Set 'Java(TM) Platform SE 7 U51' in addons to 'Always Activate' and it works.

Thanks.

Sounds that the Java installer didn't create the registry keys that Firefox uses to detect the Java plugin.

When I enter that url it redirects to 'http://www.java.com/en/download/uninstallapplet.jsp'.
