Seamonkey on Puppy Linux

I've just setup a kiosk-like PC for a client of ours, using Puppy Linux (a lightweight DSL-like distro, typically live-CD but I've put it on the HDD). The only program I've left in the "Start" menu is Seamonkey, the default browser. I'm not sure if it has Java or not, I didn't get time to check.

But the problem they are reporting is, for a couple of login screens (Yahoo member stuff, Telstra login stuff etc), when their details are entered it goes through the motions of it working and loading, but eventually just dumps them back to the login page, with no errors or messages.

If it was a JavaScript error the site would display that wouldn't it? I've enabled cookies and stuff now, and we're about to have a look at Java but that shouldn't affect simple .asp/.php login pages surely. Any ideas?
 
Java and JavaScript are completely separate things so don't worry about Java. But you almost certainly need cookies and JavaScript for a lot of sites to work fully.
 
Never mind, turns out the problem was just cookies being blocked. Checking "Allow All" fixed the problem for Hotmail at least and he was going to try the rest later. Don't I feel stupid :S 🙂
