If you go here, you will a development tool called Eclipse. I can't remember if it includes the Java SDK, if it doesn't then just go to the main Sun website and download from there. | |||

First of all, you should check whether or not you already have Java installed by going to this page: http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml If you still need Java, then install the Java Runtime Environment, often called the JRE, from here: http://www.java.com/en/download/index.jsp Don't worry about other forms of Java such as J2ME or the Java SDK (JDK) since these are for programmers. Once you have Java installed, if you are on Windows, check your control panel for Java settings in case you want to tweak things. If you are wondering about Java Webstart, that is now included in the JRE http://java.com/en/download/faq/5000070700.xml | |||
