Java scripts cannot run on website

Thread rating:  |
Bob - 13 Feb 2008 15:37 GMT I installed Java SE 1.6 but there is a website that I still cannot seem to run Java scripts in IE7.
For example: When I click on a SAVE button, the IE progress appears. Then after about 1 minute, I get the message "Page cannot be displayed".
When I tried on a diferent PC with IE7 and Java SE 1.6, there are no issues. The only major difference I see is that this PC has msjava.dll but the PC with the issue does not msjava.dll.
I thought installing Java SE 1.6 would automatically allow IE7 to run all Java scripts. Should I just copy msjava.dll and register? I understand that msjava.dll is an old DLL once distributed by MS.
Thanks, Bob

The website requires a login so providing the website information does not help much. Basically after login, I can enter some information (i.e. name, address) and click SAVE. But on my PC, the IE progress appears and then after about 1 minute, I get the message "Page cannot be displayed".
I did send a email indicated on the website but have not received a response in almost a week.

================================
1. Does this behavior persist if you start IE7 in No Add-ons mode? To start IE7 in No Add-ons mode:
Right-click on the blue IE desktop icon and select Start without Add-ons; or
Start > (All) Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Internet Explorer (No add-ons).

2. Does the problem persist if you Reset IE7 Settings (RIES)? http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737 <= Read before using!
3. If you uninstall (a) IE7 (which automatically returns you to IE6), (b) all toolbars and (c) all third-party Windows Themes (including Window Blinds) and do NOT reinstall IE7, does this behavior persist? If it does, do NOT reinstall IE7.

4. Required reading IMHO before reinstalling IE7:
Sandi's Installation Tips <= FOLLOW THESE TIPS TO THE LETTER! http://www.ie-vista.com/known_issues.html#pre-install
[And I strongly recommend using http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/ie/getitnow.mspx as the installation source, not Automatic/Windows Update.]
Make *certain* that you check in at Windows Update immediately after reinstalling IE7 to install any critical updates offered. If Optional Updates category offers Root Certificates update, I recommend installing it to take full advantage of IE7's additional security.

C:\Documents and Settings\Bob>java -version java version "1.6.0_03" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_03-b05) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.6.0_03-b05, mixed mode, sharing)
I do have a copy of msjava.dll. I was thinking of just registering it and see what happens. I do not really want to mess with my IE7.

Sun Java runtimes and JavaVM, though somewhat related, are not the same thing.

With current Java SE version 1.6.0_03, I noticed the following:
1) In IE7 Add-Ons (Tools => Manage Add-ons => Add-ons that have been used by Internet Explorer), I do not see "Web Browser Applet Control", which is the file "c:/windows/system32/msjava.dll".
2) When checking the version of the ActiveX control/program that implements Java (Tools => Internet Options => General tab => Browsing History Settings button => View Objects button), I see three "Java Runtime Environment 1.6.0" objects. One has icon same as shown in http://www.javatester.org/version.html and its properties show it is for Netscape Navigator. The other two icons has yellow shield with a black exclamation mark.

1. Download Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 Update 4
2. Select Windows Offline Installation | SAVE it to your desktop, do not RUN it.
3. When the download is complete, close all browser windows and double-click on the saved file to install the update. Be patient: It may take five (5) minutes or more for the installation to complete.
4. Delete the downloaded installation file after completing the above procedure and reboot if not prompted to do so.
5. Open Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs:
* Uninstall anything that says Sun Java, Java JRE, or similar except Java TM 6 Update 4 which you just installed. * Close Add/Remove Programs.
6. In Windows Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files\Java <=this folder | Delete any subfolders except the subfolder jre1.6.0_04 which was just created by the installation above.
NB: Do NOT delete C:\Program Files\JavaVM <=this folder, if found!

[quoted text clipped - 152 lines] >>>>>>> >>>>>>> Thanks, Bob Bob - 17 Feb 2008 19:08 GMT After installing "Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 Update 4", I still have two "Java Runtime Environment 1.6.0" icons with yellow shield with a black exclamation mark. The date of these objects is today. The third "Java Runtime Environment 1.6.0" icon remains for Netscape and date remains 14Dec-2007.
"Add/Remove" programs has the following: 1) Java DB 10.2.2.0 => Existed prior to installing "Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 Update 4" 2) Java (TM) SE Development Kit 6 => Existed prior to installing "Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 Update 4" 3) Java (TM) 6 Update 4 => Created after installing "Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 Update 4" I uninstalled "Java (TM) 6 Update 3".
":\Program Files\Java" has the following folders: 1) j2re1.4.2_03 => Existed prior to installing "Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 Update 4" 2) jdk1.6.0_03 => Existed prior to installing "Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 Update 4" 3) jre1.6.0_04 => Created after installing "Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 Update 4" The folder "jre1.6.0_03" was automatically removed after I installed "Java (TM) 6 Update 3". The folder "C:\Program Files\JavaVM" never existed at any time.
Should I uninstall "Java (TM) 6 Update 4"? Then manually remove the two "Java Runtime Environment 1.6.0" icons with yellow shield with a black exclamation if they still exist. Then try to install "Java (TM) 6 Update 4" again?

2a. Unless you're a programmer and use Java DB (http://developers.sun.com/javadb/), uninstall it.
2b. Unless you're a programmer and use Java SE Development Kit 6 (http://java.sun.com/javase/), uninstall it.
3. Reboot.
4. Assuming you uninstalled Java DB (2b above) and Java SE Development Kit 6 (2c above), you may now delete any remaining subfolders of %system%\Program Files\Java <=this folder, /except/ the folder named "jre1.6.0_04".
5. Don't worry about those "Java Runtime Environment 1.6.0 icons with yellow shield/black exclamation". [That icon doesn't mean what you think it means. <w>]

I found more information regarding differences between JRE (Java Runtime Environment) J2SE (Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition) at http://www.java.com/en/download/faq/java_diff.xml. I only run applets, not write applets.
