[nfbcs] Java problem.

Well, the point seems to be moot. I decided to try the main twitter page, as
I was getting the error while trying to view a profile. I figured I'd
inadvertently cause the error to recur, but instead, twitter let me log in
with no problem. When I attmpted to view the user profile agin, there was no
problem. It was as if the error never happened.

For future reference, the error was something to the effect of: "You cannot
use the twitter.com web site without Java enabled. Please reenable Java and
refresh the page."

Ah, yes, I remember that convention well.  
I also remember discoveringJonathan Coulton with your help...thank you!

Life has been pretty good for me. I'm on the verge of having a great job,
I'm engaged to be married...life is good!

Hi Alan.

I'm not sure what you mean.  Can you explain exactly what isn't working?
What add on are you referring to specifically (name and version number if
you can find it)?  What are web sites (like Twitter) not seeing?  Are they
giving you a specific error message?  If not, how did you deduce that Java
or Javascript was the problem?

The more details you can provide, the better.

Thanks, and on a personal note, hope everything has been going well with
you.  That was a fun convention.  Glad you finally got your bag from the
airline.
