Description

[Patty Mac]

Mac OS 10.1.4 (build: 2002-06-04-05-trunk)

1. Go to this url below here to download the MRJplugin.

http://homepage.mac.com/pcbeard/MRJPlugin/MRJPlugin_for_Chimera.dmg.gz

2. You'll have to install it in ~/.mozilla/plugins for now.

3. You have to create the folder. Here's how:

cd ~/.mozilla
mkdir plugins
open plugins

This will open the folder so you can drag it in.

Do all of this from the terminal.
 
4. Click on this url:

5.Notice the 'enable middle button' not active after clicking on the 'Disable
middle button'

Tested with 2002-07-01-05-trunk, and the problem seems to have disappeared, but
there is some really wierd behavior in the clicking of buttons.  The first click
on a button is not recognized (have to double click in order to activate).  With
the middle button active, clicking once does nothing, but every subsequent click
works.

There are many problems with clicking in the mach-o plugin. Most of these have
to do with our having to hand generate carbon events. I'm hoping Apple will help
us with some code samples.

Works for me using the 2002-11-05-04 NB. Tested under 10.2.1 and 10.1.5.

As of Camino 2003081102, the first click on the button is still ignored. (But the original problem is 
gone.) The applet seems to lose focus (or whatever the correct term is for an applet being able to 
receive mouse events) after a button is pressed, and clicking anywhere inside the applet area 
restores the focus. The next click can be received by the buttons.

We're no longer using the MRJplugin.

WONTFIXing.
