I have Windows 7. I'm using Mozilla Firefox. I use the NOAA website a lot. I like to loop the radar, but when I try, it doesn't succeed. I have to use Internet Explorer 8, and it runs fine.

It isnt Java it is Javascript.

Map function requires Javascript and a compatible browser.

Which means that one of your extensions is blocking the Javascript for the page to operate correctly. I have the same issue in Opera as i use several JS to block certain items. Which also blocks it on that page as well.

But it operates fine in Safari, Chrome and IE. Javascript and Sun Java are different. You will have to find out which extensions is doing it. Make sure you have the site allowed through NoScript as well.

But, the thing is, I had it working with the same exact setup, but I had to reinstall Windows 7, 'cause I messed around with services, and made problems with other applications and functions. It was working fine, with Java directly from the site, and Firefox directly from the site, so it's setup exactly as it was before.

Are you sure you have the latest Java? I am going by what the site said, and by what i know about Java and Javascript. They are not the same. Javascript is what is used for things like Greasemonkey Scripts and the likes. Which are used to block or modify sites and how they work.

Opera has a whole list of User Javascripts that they have going along with Firefox having them as well.

NoScript blocks these JS from running. As do AdBlock and AdBlock Element Hinding. Along with the afore mentioned Greasemonkey.

So you will have to check and make sure that you dont have any GS, NoScript or anything else running. Because those are the main differences between someone running IE and someone running Firefox is the extensions they use in firefox. So it has to be a extension you are using.

I can get it to work in Firefox by jsut allowing it through noScript. I got it working in Opera by not running my User Javascript files. So it does work, it is that you have to find out what extension you are running that is causing it from not working.

the setup can be exactly the same. That doesnt matter. What matters is the extensions.
