Netscape 7, Java not working

[Dale Start]

Hi all. I'm hoping someone can help me fix a problem with my
Netscape.

When I click on a link which should call Java to open a new window,
nothing happens. No new window, no error, nothing.

I've tried uninstalling Java, and installing the latest version
(j2re-1_4_0_02-windows-i586.exe), but nothing changed.

Here's what's in my about:plugins.

Dale,

I can't fix it, but I can tell you that I'm running into the exact same
issue on multiple sites...

(part of) the source code below on a particular site does absolutely
nothing; i.e. the onclick nor onmouseover methods do anything.

<div align="left"><a href="javascript:;"
onclick="window.open('20020901a.html', '20020901a',
config='width=635,height=475,left=50,top=50')"
onmouseover="window.status='Foto 1 - 20020901'"...

I'm hoping someone can shed some light on this, since I'm not well
versed in Java at all.

Problem gets even more interesting... the content/layout/colors buttons
don''t work in NS7 on netscape's own MyNetscape site. The
windows&buttons do work in IE (wow that's almost tragic).
Anyone know what we're missing here?

To change one's self is sufficient.
It's the idiots who want to change the world
who are causing all the trouble.

I started using Netscape 7 to avoid the same problem--Java windows not
opening in Explorer 6.0. I was told that Microsoft didn't have a
licensing agreement with Sun who develops Java (and is litigation for
using it previously) and therefore didn't include it in the 6.0 (which
they don't tell you before you download it!). Whatever the problems, the
plug-in for Java are buggy with both programs. IMO. I see this same
complaint on a lot of support boards.

I was having problems with java myself, I went to the following link and
installed manually, restarted and everything works fine for me now. I
don't if this is the same thing you downloaded, buthere is is for what
it's worth.

Got this problem with NS7 finally solved by trial&error.

When I logged on as a different user in XP and (as a result) created a
new profile in NS7, suddenly my JS windows opened up again.

Apparently the profile settings in user.js and prefs.js caused the
problem... likely the pop-up window blocker lines I had added.

I know just put 1 line in user.js:
user_pref("browser.popupdisablingUI.enabled",true);

But I leave the open unrequested windows checked in the NS7 preferences.
Works like a charm.

Taking this lead I poked and prodded with the user.js and prefs.js
until I found the culprit. On http://www.hmetzger.de/etips6.html
there's a tip about enabling control of popups. This "fix" breaks
Netscape Radio, and there's a "fix" for that. It was adding the
following lines to user.js that fixed Radio and broke Java:

user_pref("capability.policy.default.Window.open",
"noAccess");user_pref("capability.policy.policynames",
"trustable");user_pref("capability.policy.trustable.sites",
"http://radio.netscape.com");user_pref("capability.policy.trustable.Window.open",
"allAccess");

I removed them from both user.js and prefs.js and my Java's working
again. And I'll do without Netscape Radio. ;)

Thanks for the lead, Dji.
