While on SJ, couple questions myself bigc/Blackspear :)

I seem to have it listed in my WINDOWS/Download Programs twice [screenie]
I had it prior to Firefox, and when I got Firefox I went to site and it needed SJ, so thought bugger it, I will dl... did so, worked fine.
Is it because I previously had SJ 1.4.2, got FF but needed it again?

If I 'upgrade' to v5, how do you install so it works for both IE and FF?

Thanks guys. :)

Cheers, TAS

LMAO, don't know what you're doing but I get the following ;D

No more plonk for you Tas ;)

Cheers ;D

[bigc73542]

you can get the 5.0 beta here (http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/index.jsp)

[ronjor]

As Firefox PR1 will import all IE settings now, I would use IE to install 5.0 RC.

Import the settings to Firefox.

(Let me know if it works) :)

Man of many talents, and a quick google trigger ;)

@ Blackspear: LOL... yeah... plonk time is over mate. Allrighty then, I got that screenie in FF. Using IE I got the same as yours, but, that's still 1.4.2 anyway and I do have that installed for sure in IE. :)

@ bigc: Thanks for link ;)

@ Ron: Thanks for link also, and tip, good one re export/import IE to FF.

However, upon reflection, I think I shall wait a tad until RC becomes Final.

@ Ice: Follow the bouncing ball mate, keep your eye on the ball. :o :D ;D :P

Huh? What was the original question? 8)

maybe we should ask LWM if they can have a link to post 15

well i got it i hope, thanks for the help, i'll let you know if bonzi buddy turns up and i ended up in the wrong place :) :(

also, Tassie last time i installed this version i wished i'd uninstalled 1.4.2 first because it's such a big install. and theres a post somewhere here that says if you uninstall an eariler version both will be uninstalled, or something along those lines. i first upgraded because 1.4.2_4(or 3) is not secure, i hear you need at least 1.4.2_5

[GlobalForce]

Sounds too good to miss out. Is this 5.0 beta downloaded over 1.4.2, or should that be removed first.
Pardon my asking, it's late to read for myself, and I'm tired :P. TIA.

Speaking for myself, I always uninstall a program before installing a newer or beta version.

Sun Java (http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/deployment/deployment-guide/faq.html#uninstall)

[Tassie_Devils]

Oh Ice.. here mate.. you might need this roadmap..

ROFL....;D

Just that I have read some programs out there can perform an on-top-install.

Personally, I favor the clean install. Fresh.
