Java script plug-in?

[ThinkPad]

Say if I were to go to this site http://www.chumbo.com/Info.aspx?id=213126&ptr=YPS

and click on http://www.chumbo.com/Styles/1/images/b ... Ex2Day.gif for some reason there is no way to open it. I just switched to Mozilla and the same thing happened with IE. Looking at the address it shows a java script prompt, do I need some kinda of plug-in?

Try going to java.sun.com and obtaining, downloading and installing the standard Java VM. Look first in Add/Remove programs and see if any Java application is installed. Uninstall it before installing any new version. That may help you. I have the standard runtime VM version 1.4.2_06 installed and I don't get Java script errors. ... JD Hurst

I have these two java programs installed. Should I erase them, then install a new one? Are they suppose to be that large?

actually, you can get rid of both..... go to sun.com and get the JS2E Runtime Environment 5.0. It is about 92MB.

I just took out both java programs and installed JS2E 5, still cant click on that java script link

your classpath is incorrect....just kidding. I just formatted so i dont have Java installed yet, but there should be a Java icon in the window's control panel. There should be a place where you can select which java runtime versions to use. make sure version 1.5 ( or might be just listed as version 5) an only version 1.5 is selected. Did you uninstall IBM's JRE?

I tried the links you noted and they worked just fine for me. So given that you have at least one recent Sun Java environment installed, it should work, and there must be something else wrong, although I don't know what that would be. ... JD Hurst
