There is a problem with pages containing java script, they never load properly.
This would be true of crossword sites where you can play the puzzle online, but
it requires a java script enabled browser. They all work perfectly well with IE 5.5.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Paste the link in the command bar.
2. Press ENTER.
3. The java script portion of the page, which is at the top left-hand corner of
the page, will not load.

There is Java there, not JavaScript (the two have nothing to do with each 
other, name similarity notwithstanding).

Do you have a Java plugin?  (Look in Help > About Plugins).

The applet loads and works without a problem. Build 2003012804, XP Pro SP1.

I have now installed Java Plug-in 1.4.1_01 but it stil doesn't work. I believe
this has to do with the fact that I am behind a proxy server. 

So is there any work-around for this ??

Changing component to Java: OJI.
I don't have Java installed, so I can't confirm.
This might be related to Bug #92782

The page was changed. I can't see any java applet in that page. Reporter, could
you find a new test case? or I would rather to mark this WFM per comment 2 & 3.

Comment 7

[Simon Paquet [:sipaq]]

Multiple WFM comments. Testcase is gone. No response from reporter in eight weeks.

Marking WFM.
Reporter, please reopen this bug if you can provide a working testcase and still
see this issue in a current build.
