[newbie] Installing Java plugin for Mozilla
Hi there, I wish I had a dollar, (accounting for the current rate of inflation), for every time I've seen this need addressed in these lists. Doesn't anyone read the archives any more? ;) with this thought in mind I've saved this message as a template on my system and will send it to the list probably once a week so in case anyone misses the post it will show up again and again and again on the list for those poor souls that missed it the previous time it was posted. Almost as many times as the question, "where can I get the Java plugins for Mozilla/Netscape...etc... anyway...if you're needing the java plugin for Netscape, or Mozilla go follow the link below and you'll be able to download and install the java plugin. And by the way...this does not require the download and install of Sun's JDK or JRE packages. This is a seperate "browser" plugin. IMPORTANT NOTE: you Must be root user when you do this or the plugin will NOT install. http://cgi.netscape.com/cgi-bin/pi_moreinfo.cgi?PID=10048 Mark Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

I haven't seen the archives for months - I never see > any link to them and can't remember the url > > Anne If you use Mozilla or Phoenix (don't know about NS7) and haven't been using custom keyword searching, now's the time to learn. Just go to any site that has a search (like the newbie archives at http://www.mail-archive.com/newbie@linux-mandrake.com/), enter a dummy search phrase like "coffee" (no quotes) and bookmark the results page. Next, go to Bookmarks > Mangage bookmarks, and look at the properties of the bookmark you just made. Locate the word "coffee" in the URL and replace it with "%s" (no quotes). In the keyword field, enter a short phrase you'll remember; I use "newb". Now when I enter "newb boot hang cups" in the address bar I go directly to the results page of a Mandrake newbie search on "boot hang cups". Pretty cool! I also have custom searches for Freshmeat.net, rpmfind.net, m-w.com, sourceforge, amazon.com, LDP, google (web, groups, images, and news) and a few others.

Rich Rich, Then it would appear that there's something wrong with your installation of Netscape/Mozilla, because this plugin has been working flawlessly for myself and others, which is why I post this message about once a week on the list.
