See > http://mindprod.com/jgloss/googlechrome.html > -- Hi Roedy, Thanks for your response on this (and other issues over the years). My issue maybe as simple as jumping the gun on Java7. I thought it has been mainstream for yonks but it looks like it's still beta; is that correct? I have a box running 1.7.0-03b05 plugin 10.3.0.5 and *everything* is peachy! But 1.7.0-b147 plugin 10.0.0.147 and I get the "Chrome says you're running crap click here for once only" message :-( I am *VERY* excited about having worked around the bug in: - http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=7001755 (basically replace the "rendezvous()" call with a return value) and need to rule out this version crap. Should I remove 1.7 altogether? Why does Chrome not see 1.7 and still complain about 6.31 even though it's still there? Why do I get that sick page error? Ok, in a nutshell, "Is Java 7 off the table for the time-being?" or "1.7.0-03b05 is the mutt's nutz! This is the candidate release and why you're getting such good results - bet the farm on it!" Firefox, IE8, Opera, Chrome, and Safari are *ALL* on board with this on platform X; why is it magic? (Same Chrome, IE, FF. Safari and Opera versions; it certainly appears to be a dicky JRE?)
