Chat Problem

[Mike257]

When I try to get to chat I keep getting this message. Where do I get this version of Jave?

Sorry, but you need a Java 1.4.x enabled browser to use PJIRC.

Try here.
Download Free Java Software - Sun Microsystems

Sun Developer Network (SDN) Downloads

Alternatively, install Firefox and have it install Java for you. Better solution in any event.

Well I downloaded firefox and now chat works. I didnt realize Firefox was a totally new browser, lots of features I like here . Like Holding the ctrl key then hitting + symbol to increase the size of the page, I am going to transfer all my fav places to this browser and forget about IE

If you like Firefox, you may want to take a look at this article: A List of Over 100 Best Firefox Extensions - Stepcase Lifehack

An indispensable extension is https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1865.

Enjoy!

Thank you sir, I have already started customizing and adding "Add ons" once you get used to it , doesnt look much different than the IE browser, but it works much better.

Glad it so easily works for some. Since the upgrades to the SRP, I cannot get to the chat location from my Internet Explorer. Sixgun provided a link a while ago, but I didn't file it and now am unable to get in. No big deal as I generally don't have many insights, but I remain mystified why the chat key on the top of the main page won't allow both the computer cognoscenti and idiots like myself equal access.

Whine out.

The link is on the front page of the Wiki: Main Page - Straight Razor Place Wiki - Freenode Java applet IRC portal.

I would strongly recommend installing Firefox to replace Explorer: Mozilla | Firefox web browser & Thunderbird email client. Explorer is a pathetic joke (in terms of security, features, usability, speed, and everything else), and should vanish from the face of the earth as soon as possible.

Follow-up to myself, and a rather shameless plug for a Wiki article, but you all might find this one useful: Using the SRP Chat - Straight Razor Place Wiki
