No Button for Chat

[kimby]

Where everybody else apparently has a Chat button under where it says Law Enforcement Forums, I see a red x, "Law Enforcement Forums" in small letters and no chat button. Does anybody know what's wrong?

Make sure in your user options you're using the Law Enforcement skin, and if that doesn't work install Java Software.

For Those With Connection Difficulties

If you are running a version of a Microsoft Windows, or a BSD/*NIX variant and see only a broken link icon, (Red X) you will need to download a copy of the Java™ Virtual Machine in order to run our application. You may download Java™ Support for your browser from the link below:

Sun Java Plugin

We strongly recommend upgrading using the most modern version of your web browser available today. Certain browsers (esp. Netscape 5 and below) running on Macintosh platforms are not capable of running our software due to issues outside of our control. We recommend that Macintosh users use Netscape 7.0, or MSIE 5.x. As WebTV does not support Java™, WebTV users will not be able to access our chat rooms. We recommend that Apple Macintosh users upgrade to OS X 10.3 or later.

Users behind firewalls may need to inform their local IT/network administrator to allow TCP connections on the port in use by SigmaChat. Contact your chat room owner (webmaster) to determine which server and port number this chat room has been allocated. Your chat room owner can find this information in the Help section of their chat room's control panel. SigmaChat generally uses ports 8000-8009 at client#.sigmachat.com, where # may be any integer. Additional information can be found at http://support.raidersoft.com or by contacting your chat room administrator.

AOL Members: Some users have reported that the built-in AOL browser has difficulty connecting to our service, or does not load colors/emoticons properly. To resolve this, minimize your AOL connection, and use the Internet Explorer browser that came with your operating system to access our chat rooms.

If that does not work try this.

On Internet Explorer

click on Tools

Internet Options

Security

Custom Levels

Scroll down to Microsoft VM and view your settings for Java Permission. I have High Safety checked on mine so be sure it is not disabled.

Scroll down to Scripting and make sure it is enabled.

Scroll down to Scripting of Java applets and make sure it is enabled.

You may need to restart your computer for the changes to take affect.
