With the rest of the browsers like that Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox or Opera will display the text "None ..." on your system and you will see the gray area below that.
  • Alternatively, you can also find on the Java homepage Below the button "Free Java download" the link "Do I already have Java?". If you click on this and then on the "Check Java Version" button, a page similar to the test area mentioned will be opened. Regardless of your browser, you would either see the version of the Java Runtime Environment or just get the text that the software could not be found on your computer.
