Oracle Java is installed and verified yet doesn't work

[bkarlan]

I have deleted all OpenJDK programs including IcedTea. I have installed Java via the terminal and can verify in "about:plugins" in both Chrome and Firefox that I have Java(TM) - Version: 1.7.0_13 installed. I have verified with http://www.java.com/en/download/testjava.jsp that I have Java installed by getting the following message;
Your Java is working
Latest Java installed
Your Java configuration is as follows:
Vendor: Oracle Corporation
Version: Java SE 7 Update 13
Operating System: Linux 3.5.0-23-generic
Java Architecture: 32-bit

Yet it still doesn't work and whenever I run a website that requires Java I'm told I need to install Java. Additionally, when I go to the site http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp?detect=jre I'm told I do not have Java installed.

Can anyone help?

I have now verified Java. "You have the recommended Java installed (Version 7 Update 15)."

Yet when I try to run a site that requires Java it tells me that it is not installed. I have told Java to Activate on all sites already.

It verifies with Firefox, but not Chrome.

[sixcorners]

maybe it would help to paste the stuff you find in chrome's about:plugins

I have verified Java;
java version "1.7.0_12-ea"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_12-ea-b05)
Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 24.0-b26, mixed mode)

Yet I'm always told on the website the following;
We have detected that you do not have Java installed. At least 1.6.0_11 of the Java Runtime Environment is required to run zipForm� 6 Professional.

It shows in Chrome and I have clicked enable. But the site is not setup to run well in Chrome, so I don't care much about it running in Chrome at this point.

It's just the same here:

I've followed the steps from oracle and get the same results: it looks installed, it answers correctly to java -version, but I don't get Chromium to work with it. It just tells me that I should upddate the existing version (though they are already the last ones)
