Oekaki/Java problems & solutions

[DoctorDraca]

Operating System: Windows 8
Internet Explorer is what I use to get here.

Okay, so the problem I have been getting continuously is that Java is not installed, when it clearly is, and the scripting is enabled. Can anyone help me?

I can't switch to Chrome or Firefox because of certain reasons.

Make sure all previous versions of Java have been uninstalled. Try to also verify your Java. If it comes out positive, then we'll know it's browser related. If it comes out negative, I suggest uninstalling and reinstalling Java.

I'll try to find some solutions so you won't have to switch browsers, but I can't guarantee anything. :c

I've been having this problem for a while now. I've reinstalled java multiple times (first deleting all older versions), restarted my computers, etc, to no avail.

However, this is a bit of a strange case. I went onto the adoptable oekaki forum and it opened a new drawing as it usually should. I doodled a little bit, and closed it for the night to finish later.
The next day I tried re-opening the canvas. The actual New oekaki canvas loaded and worked fine, but as soon as I pressed the saved drawing under it, it freezes. If I close out and try it again, nothing loads at all, not even the blank canvas. This pattern keeps showing up and I'm not sure how to fix it ovo

I use chrome on a windows 7, btw. Thanks for any help!

Well, Im not allowed to uninstall anything without my parents help. And they dont like me playing Chicken Smoothie, because they know nothing of it, but they allow me to play as long as I dont download anything. I might have to ask my brother to help, but me and him are having a row right now, so I dunno if I can do this until a long while later. And, due to school, I can't get on the computer much at all. Homework is killing me x_x. So I might have to hold this off until next summer, but I hope it works then! Thanks for your help!

Hi! How do you get a transparent background on an Oekaki drawing? Not on the picture, but when posted. ^^

Make sure you don't have a background (you'll see white and grey squares in the canvas) before you post your drawing. Then right click the drawing, select View Image, and copy the URL. Then change the format=auto to format=png in the link and post it between IMG tags. c:

Code: Select all

Like that.


Panne, I'll try and list some things to try later on tonight. Sorry I couldn't get to your problem earlier, I wasn't home.

Can you try using another browser? Just to see if the problem persists. Because if it's just happening in Chrome, perhaps you might need to update your browser to the newest version to keep up with the newer Java update.

It worked on Firefox, but it seems like the problem solved itself ouo;;
Thanks for the help though!

How do you get it to work for the Nook HD?

Because Java doesn't wanna seem to work at all for my Nook, yet it's somehow already installed

I'd gone to see if I could get this fixed and they called Java Support which suggested using other browser downloads for my Nook.

I tried that and it didn't work
