Hi gramma
Taking classes and they are using Blackboard. Things have been fine
but now when asked if I want to take the assessment now and I confirm
nothing happens. It is only this one assignment I can get into
others from other classes. They told me I had to check all the boxes
in Java and I have done that still nothing
Anyone know what I am talking about?
Thanks for any help

There is good information concerning all aspects of the Java situation here:
http://www.javatester.org/installing.html
Be aware, however, that after Dec 31, 2007, MS will apparently no longer be
distributing Java or providing any support for Java including security
fixes. See here:
http://www.microsoft.com/mscorp/java/ so you might want
to start thinking about the future.
You can get the Sun Java J2SE RunTimes or SDK here:
http://java.sun.com/downloads/index.html (all versions - select using the
dropdown)
Sun also offers an automatic download and install of the 1.4 Java plug-in
here:
http://java.sun.com/getjava/download.html
Both Java VM's can co-exist on your machine quite nicely. Just select which
one you want to use in Tools|Internet Options|Advanced and restart all IE
browsers. Here, courtesy of Mitch Gallant, MVP Security, is a tiny utility
which allows you to toggle and view status of your current Java VM vendor
associated with IE:

A note from Mitch Gallant:
"One note about the JVM Selector utility: If/when you install a new
version of Sun J2SE, you need to manually select to have Sun JVM as default
JVM for IE (in install), or after install via the JavaPlugin control panel.
This generates the necessary win32 registry entries, which must be present
for the utility to know about JavaPlugin. After that, the utility should
work properly."
