Portable Palemoon with Portable Java

Unread post by scottt » 2021-01-13, 20:53

Is this possible? I would like to use Portable Palemoon w/ Portable Java. Have both installed to their default locations. The only topic I could find on the subject here was closed as off topic.

Can this be done? If so, how do I get Palemoon to see java a load the plugin?

The java plugin for browsers has been deprecated AFAIK, ever since Firefox and Chrome ditched the NPAPI plugin system. It definitely isn't a part of Java 11, which is what's current.

Just like videobruce said above:

OP: What kind of Web sites (actual examples please) use Java these days?

Flash -- maybe...
Java -- really?

EDIT:

You're not looking for JavaScript capabilities, right? Because Pale Moon has those already.

Off-topic:
Imagine how the tech community must curse the guy who decided to name it Javascript instead of letting it be ECMAScript for leading to generations of clueless IT recruiters who can't fucking tell the difference between the two when advertising job openings that require one or the other. I've even seen someone call for 'knowledge of Java scripting' :x
