ALL OF A SUDDEN JAVASCRIPT REFUSED TO ACTIVATE. HAVE TOTALLY REMOVED FIREFOX AND JAVA. REINSTALLED BOTH. ACTIVATED IN THE ADD-ON PAGE. NO SUCCESS. IT HAD BEEN WORKING FOR A LONG TIME BEFORE THIS. WINDOWS 7.

Can you confirm about what problem you have?

Is this about running Java applets on web pages?

Note that Firefox is a 32 bit application and that you need the 32 bit Java version for Firefox. Update the Java plugin to the latest version.

You can find the latest 32 bit Java versions on the Oracle website.

See Java Platform > Java SE 7u67/8u20 (JRE Download;32 bit for Windows)


Can you attach a screenshot?

  • Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot
  • Make sure that you do not exceed the maximum size of 1 MB

Nothing has worked unfortunately. Java works in IE and Chrome. Spent too much time so giving up.

Just to be sure, even though you have 64-bit Windows you need 32-bit Java since Firefox for Windows is 32-bit.
