Java applets won't run on Safari???

I have reinstalled Java twice, and it still won't run any Java applets. It just sits there with the cup logo and the arrow on either side. It works fine on Firefox but not Safari. Help?

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.4.11)

On the second link: a few seconds after it says 'download Java' it comes up with the usual notice reading 'This applet was signed by "Integrated Analytics LLC" but Java cannot verify the authenticity of the signature's certificate. Do you trust this certificate? Click Trust to run this applet and allow it unrestricted access to your computer."

Not in my case, but it would run if I let it.

Your first link does not open.

Hello
I'm piggy backing on this thread because I too have had problems with Java and Safari
Java runs fine for me in Firefox, however.
I went to a federal website
https://blrscr3.egs-seg.gc.ca/gol-ged/gov/browserdetection/BrowserCheck.html
that uses java and received this message

" Java applet unable to load
To use this service, you must either install a recent version of the Sun JVM or enable "Scripting of Java applets" if it has been disabled."

so i looked for an update and have downloaded and installed release 6, (at least, it said that it was installed, but have never been able to figure out where)

when I check Java preferences, the choices are J2SE 1.4.2 or J2SE 5, and when I've switched to 1.4.2 I still have no luck.

When i run firefox, i get the java console opening, but it doesn't open with safari, and I can't find the option for this to turn on in safari

i have restarted both safari and my computer and no luck. I have repaired permissions and no changes have taken place.

Any more suggestions?
(thank you, by the way)

So they don't (yet) support Safari 3, probably because nobody has told them that Safari 3 is now out of beta.

You should contact them and complain!

I clicked 'Continue' and was invited to sign in (which I didn't want to do). Did you get that far?
