disable the Java installation dialog?

2013-01-13 Thread Rob
We use Seamonkey (2.14.1 for now) at work and I manage it using
locked preferences, a loginscript that creates a user.js, etc.

We used to have Java installed on all computers, but now I have
deleted it on most computers and only installed it in a few places
where it is really required.

Now, when visiting a website that uses Java on a computer where it
is no longer installed, Seamonkey shows the missing plugins bar with
a button to install the missing plugin.

Clicking that button, it offers to install Java 7u10.  When
Next is clicked on this screen, it immediately shows a dialog
informing that this has failed, and a manual install button that
directs the user to the Java site where the plugin can be downloaded.

It is OK that it fails to install the plugin, this probably
happens because I locked the preference xpinstall.enabled to false.
(or because it finds that it cannot write into system directories?)

However, I would like it to act sooner.  Is it possible to somehow
block the button to install the missing plugin or to have it pop
up a screen informing that plugin installation is disabled, instead
of offering to install Java?

We don't want the users to wander off into sites that offer downloads
and waste their time on trying that (which will fail anyway).

I am looking for a solution that can be scripted.  Solutions like
open the Add-Ons manager and click this and that are not useful
for me.

Re: Exporting messages

Interviewed by CNN on 13/01/2013 04:06, Paul B. Gallagher told the world:

 Of course, on Windows systems, at least those of recent vintage, an 
 order to move a file or folder between different drives or computers is 
 realized as a copy anyway.

It has been that way for a long time... but it's not *quite* as you put
it: it's not moving a file, it's dragging  dropping a file.

It's actually a bit annoying because the behaviour ends up being
inconsistent -- depending on the exact circumstances, dragging 
dropping a file will result in different events.

- Drag to another folder in the same drive: MOVE
- Drag to a different drive: COPY

It used to be worse -- in older Windows versions (I can't recall exactly
when, but it may have been in the old Win9x variant), if you dragged a
*program* file to another folder, it would create a shortcut instead of
copying or moving.

I got into the habit of always dragging with the right mouse button --
that way, when I drop the file, a pop-up opens asking me exactly what I
want to do. Which is useful, because in my case, there are even more
choices -- I use Herman Schinagl' Hardlink Shell Extension, so I also
have options for creating hardlinks, symlinks and such.

The oldest version in common use nowadays is XP, released in 2001. I 
would count that as recent vintage, but perhaps you see it as a long 
time. Close enough.



but it's not *quite* as you put it: it's not moving a file, it's
dragging  dropping a file.


Dragging  dropping is one of several ways of transmitting a move order 
to the computer. AFAIK, no matter how you tell it, the computer behaves 
the same way.


Also AFAIK, the underlying structure of a move is:
1) copy
2) verify copy
3) delete original

So the difference in case of different drives or computers is that the 
third step is omitted. The user must perform this step manually if desired.

Rob,

I have no idea where in the SM filing system to look, however I have 
learned that a lot of the display elements in the application are 
controlled by CSS attributes.


The idea here is that if the button in question is Named you can 
assign a hidden CSS attribute to that button.  The hazard is if the

Reading messages and read/unread status

2013-01-13 Thread Rostyslaw Lewyckyj

Windows 7 ultimate
For quite a while now I have had the problem that when I read a message
the busy indicator, (little auroboros , circle chasing its tail), comes 
on and doesn't go out. Up until a couple of days ago, this did not seem 
to cause any lasting problems. i.e. I could go to another message, or 
another task as if the busy didn't matter. However now the read/unread 
status of the 'read' message, (green asterisk in status column) does not
change i.e. remains on. If I am displaying the verbal/expanded text 
status column the status does not change. But if I manually click on a 
status asterisk for a message it does change properly and the verbal

status in the text column changes as well.
What do I need to do to correct the situation?
 - make the busy indicator behave properly
 - have the read/unread status indicators behave correctly?
Can it be done, short of completely re-installing SeaMonkey?

Just so we know what we are discussing, on today's Microsoft operating 
systems, specifically XP, we have two type of Task Bars.  The one in 
the bottom right corner, with the system clock, is the System Task 
Bar, and shows most applications launched at start-up.  The one in th 
bottom left corner is the Quick Launch Bar, and is so called because 
it is configured to launch a program with One Click.


To your question, with another question.  Would it help to have two SM 
icons; each with a different program icon, and each separately opening 
either Mail, or Browser?

Hard to say without knowing what OS and version you're running.

I went through the Java control panel in my Windows 7 Control Panel, and 
the update installed without incident.


As for Win-Rar, you can get a demo version without paying and use it for 
as long as you like. It will nag you to contribute each time it starts, 
but it runs fine after you dismiss the nag.

SeaMonkey update starts with Email on the left, and the Browser to the right, 
and will not remember these if changed and restarted. It is a small thing, but 
the reason we use SeaMonkey (and always used Netscape) is it lets us customize 
much better than IE.

Does anybody know how to force SeaMonkey to open with Browser on left and Email 
on right, on the Win XP task bar. We have multiple computers and SeaMonkey 
profiles, so consistency is important.



If your are talking about the Task Bar icons for the SeaMonkey programs 
(browser and mail) ...


No.  You cannot control how the icons are arranged on the taskbar.  This 
is not a SeaMonkey issue, it it an OS issue.  Learn to live with it and 
train your users.


In Windows 7 a user can drag/arrange icons on the taskbar bar to 
re-arrange them.  But not in XP.


Still, you cannot control how a user opens/starts a program which is 
what determines how the OS sits the icons on the taskbar.


And, frankly, why are you trying to have such granular control over 
this?  If you'd simply train your users how to effectively use their 
systems you'd have no issue.


Hmm.  Well, on further thought ...

If you want to get Draconian about it ...

You could set up every system in the company with a custom boot sequence 
that loads the OS and then ...


[yourdisk]:\Program Files\SeaMonkey\seamonkey.exe -browser -P EdNew

[yourdisk]:\Program Files\SeaMonkey\seamonkey.exe -mail -P EdNew

That might work.  Haven't tested it.  No reason to.  Educate your users 
- it's much less work.

Re: Exporting messages

2013-01-13 Thread MCBastos
Interviewed by CNN on 13/01/2013 12:30, Philip TAYLOR told the world:

 Unable to believe that for one second, I created a top-level
 directory N:\To be moved, and shift-dragged it (i.e., move)
 to P:\  It was moved.  It was not copied.  The original is gone.
 Forever.

That's not what I meant. I meant simple drag-and-drop *without* holding
a modifier key. If you simply drag a file or folder (no shift, ctrl or
alt modifier) to the same volume, it gets moved; if you do the same to a
different volume, it gets copied. The default behaviour changes
depending on the circumstances.

The ctrl and shift modifiers impose the same behaviour regardless of
circumstances.
