I need a cup of Java..
Hello,
the problem, My Mom just bought an eMac she also uses Lavalife.com. everything was fine until a few days ago when the instant messaging there stopped working, its Java script. None of the browsers I've tried works. she can't tell me what she did or why it stopped working, she pointed me to the faq page which says that Macs have problems with the messaging feature on their site and they recommend using Netscape, that doesn't work either. I'm wondering if there are some settings that she may have in blindly switched..
thoughts?

In IE, go to preferences and under java check that the java enabled box is ticked.
In Netscape, gp to preferences and under advanced/scripts & plug-ins check that the enable java script for navigator is ticked.
I have had big problems with java on Mac. Our web services are all java based and the file browsing stuff seems to be a real pig here. Make sure you download Java 1.4.1 and install that.
Oh, the latest safari is realy wuite good with java. Macke sure you try this.
