Plugins for SeaMonkey 2.0.4
I succeeded in making the move from 1.1.19 to 2.0.4, with a few small problems. The one I am attempting to resolve at the present time has to do with opening an Old Faithful page. Here is a summary of that problem--I hope somebody can help me solve my problem. I first go to: http://www.nps.gov/archive/yell/oldfaithfulcam.htm Once there, I next click Old Faithful Geyser Live! at the top of this page. On the next page, I click Launch Old Faithful Geyser Live!—Video WebCam. The next page has a yellow banner at the top with the following printed in that banner: Additional plugins are required to display all the media on this page. Install Missing Plugins I then click: Install Missing Plugins On to the next page: Plugin Finder Service Available Plugin Downloads Fhe following plugins are available: (check in the box) Windows Media Player 11 Some plugins may require additional information from you during installation. Press Next to install these plugins. Back Next I clicked: Next I then get a new window as follows: Plugin Finder Service No plugins were installed. Windows Media Player 11 Not Available Manual Install Find out more about Plugins or manually find missing plugins. Back Finish Clicking Finish takes me back to where I once had the page with the yellow banner at the top (now less the yellow banner). Clicking Manual Install takes me to this address: http://port25.technet.com/pages/windows-media-player-firefox-plugin-download.aspx I manually downloaded the software and then moved to install this software. Well, I was only given one option, and that was repair...guess what, I clicked repair. It went through the process of doing the repair--and I then returned to the Old Faithful web can. I again got the yellow banner window. Question: Is this one of the plugins that hasn't been rewritten for SeaMonkey or am I doing something wrong again? Any words of advice/help would be appreciated.

The problem is that installer will only install the plugin for *Firefox*. You will have to copy manually the np-mswmp.dll from the Firefox plugin folder to the Seamonkey plugin folder, and then restart the browser so it notices the new plugin. -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm.

Frog I believe you are a victim of invalid browser sniffing. I get the yellow banner with SeaMonkey 2.0.4 and with spoofing Firefox 3.6.3. But I don't get it with spoofing Internet Explorer 7. See my http://www.rossde.com/internet/sniffing.html for suggestions on how to deal with invalid browser sniffing and how to defeat it. Note that the Web site in question indicates: This webcam is out of service. A replacement camera has been requested and will be installed as soon as it is possible to do so. Please note, however, that it may function intermittently, but uninterrupted service is impossible to maintain at this time. -- David E. Ross http://www.rossde.com/ Go to Mozdev at http://www.mozdev.org/ for quick access to extensions for Firefox, Thunderbird, SeaMonkey, and other Mozilla-related applications. You can access Mozdev much more quickly than you can Mozilla Add-Ons. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

After reading the message from MCBastos, I decided to look at why 1.1.19 worked and 2.0.4 did not. I found the file np-mswmp.dll was included in the SeaMonkey/Plugin folder for 1.1.19 and that is was not included in the SeaMonkey/Plugin folder for 2.0.4. I then copied the np-mswmp.dll file in 1.1.19 and pasted it to the 2.0.4 plugin folder. I can now access the Old Faithful page in 2.0.4 as I have done in the past on 1.1.19. I do intend to explore the suggestion to visit David Ross's web page in the next few days. http://www.rossde.com/internet/sniffing.html I want to understand internet sniffing and how it may be impacting on my internet experience.

Thanks again for the help. Frog You may want to read this: http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/windows.html#WMP . Note that, if Firefox is not present, the WMP 11 browser plugin installer places the plugin into C:\PFiles\Plugins. When I do a new installation for Seamonkey, I get the plugin from the aforementioned folder. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
