[Cyrus Serrano]

why is it hard to download a java compiler at java.sun.com, it seems like the link is hard to reach, help.

thanks for reading.

What link did you try?

What did you do?

What happened?

If you just need to find the JDK 5.0 link, here it is:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/download.jsp
Click on "Download JDK".

Click on PJ's link, click on "Download J2SE SDK", get the error message, click on the back arrow on your menu bar, click on "Download J2SE SDK" again, and you get in OK. This worked for me on FireFox 1.0, IE 6.0, and NetScape 7.2, so I guess it's a Sun server problem.

There used to be a computer game called "Hacker" that worked like this.
