Firefox problem

starlightlynn30 · 10-24-2009, 10:19 PM

I have a problem. when I try to play rocket mania on Firefox and get an error saying my browser does not support Java. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and also installed the one that zylom recommends. I need help. I have to use Google Chrome to play the game and it don't have an adblock on it, I can't enable extensions on it, because I don't know how to

If you're having trouble playing flash/shockwave games at zylom in Firefox, make sure your firewall and security settings are not blocking scripts.

Also, if you're using the NoScript addon in Firefox, or any other similar addons, set them to allow zycom to allow javascripts.

the only add on that blocks ads is adblock, I disabled it to see if that was the problem, which it is not

the only game I have the problem is Rocket Mania, I can play the others, if my browser did not support Java, then I would not be able to play any game

I've just tried to play Rocket Mania at zylom with scripts enabled and got the same error as you.

Before the error appeared, Firefox displayed a yellow bar at the top of the screen telling me to install a missing plugin. I told it to find and download the required plugin, but it said that no suitable plugin could be found.

I then tried the blue Help button at the top of the page. The 'to all questions' link for Online Games opens a page that gives instructions for 'I click Play in an online game, but the game does not start', but nothing that hasn't already been suggested here.

All my plugins are up to date and working properly, cookies are enabled and nothing is being blocked, so it could be a problem with that particular game if all other zylom games work.

Contact site owner for the game compatibility requirement? To my mind it only requires flash plugins.
