:( You have posted the same in Bugs and General - that is against netiquette.
I have moved one from Bugs to General and will delete it later.

Sun's [b]Java[/b] has nothing to do with it. No use the reinstall Java.
Facebook uses a newer [b]Java[/b] [b][u]Script[/u][/b] dialect that is not always understood by K-Meleon1.5.Versions. See bottom under K-Meleon 1.6.

Read forum search first - Facebook causes lots of problems. http://kmeleon.sourceforge.net/forum/search.php?3,search=facebook,author=,page=1,match_type=ALL,match_dates=0,match_forum=ALL,match_threads=0

Some more answers to Facebook problems.

A Forum General sticky about fixe e.g. for Facebook!

A K-Meleon 1.5.4 extension that adds an answer button to K-Meleon 1.5. versions!

there's also an extension to fix adding comment problem in facebook, the new facebook js reloads the page instead of accepting the comment in gecko 1.8, .. the fix restores the comment button under inputs, clicking the button will add your comment normally..the button is auto-loaded with facebook (....) it will affect the entire subdomain and be visible throughout the page

download the facebook commentbutton fix from this link and restart kmeleon

A more general approach is to upgrade to K-Meleon 1.6beta2 which has a newer html and JavaScript engine. Some recently updated pages do not support the html & JavaScript engine of K-Meleon 1.5.x any more.

If You want to use more than one K-Meleon version do not install into the same location. 
Even tough the installer offers this location by default. :mad:

Always install different K-Meleons each under a unique new name and location. E.g. K-Meleon 1.6beta2en-US. K-Meleon 1.5 and K-Meleon 1.6 Version can use the same Profile if You take care that they can use the same skin. Copy one You want to use to the respective other K-Meleon install also to make it available.

Better results on borderline compatible pages are achieved when You spoof K-Meleon as Firefox. Look under: Tools > User Agent > Firefox

Reason: Some pages use a common browser switch that mistakes K-Meleon as IE.
K-Meleon (& Firefox too) does not understand the same JavaScript dialect as IE.

K-Meleon understands the JavaSCript dialect that a Firefox with a similar engine/GRE version understands.[/quote]
