Hi,

Picture Uploading here is handled by javascript within the page.

It is enabled in Safari like this

The Internet Plug-ins may have the Java App plug-in if you have Installed Java.

It does look more likely that it is a Plug-in that is the trouble. I mention javascript due to the similarities in name and the fact either could be used.

Hi,

In that original Pic can the error Alert be grabbed at the bottom right corner and dragged wider ?

I was wondering if the top line gave more info on whether it is Java or javascript.

If only says java, I can see like an error log? Should I show it to you?

Thank you so much for your help

Hi,

The ℹ (info Button) in that pic may show more detail.

You may have to copy this to TextEdit and hide your name, or IP addresses that appear before Posting it here.

I am not sure I will be able to help if it is a error log from Java or even javascript but it might show enough plain text info to make some educated guesses.
