At the link I gave is a link to sun along with some instructions on
how to use it.

Even though this website appears a (bit too much) lot in this group, I
agree it has interesting information.

For your notice:
- using firefox and IE, the "J:" links shows like this:
file://localhost/J:/m------d/j----s/jdk.html
(I hid your real url, no free ads in this world :) )
If I paste this on the command line (Dos, Explorer IE or browser), I
doubt I'll get anything working except if I have a webserver that has a
"J:" location.
- on the J:Drive page, there is a typo in the second paragraph title:
"Brower Support for the J: links"

Good stuff there anyway.

That is a local reference, not my URL.

explains how to set up a J: drive so those local links will work. They
are even directly clickable if you use the Replicator to maintain a
local mirror. If you use IE, they are directly clickable even if you
don't use the Replicator.

What the hell's with you? You went to the Jdrive documentation section
linked beside every J: drive reference and read it carefully enough
to find a typo, yet posted a critique as if that entry did not exist.

I triied in IE, but still it shows a "file://localhost/J:/..."
where I expect a "file://J:/..."
That's all that I meant. And even after reading the JDrive page, I don't
understand. Now maybe it is normal and I should set it on my computer to
really understand :)

Yes, I read the page in order to understand it. I think it's a nice
concept. Now I didn't mean to critique it for the pleasure of
criticizing. Maybe I'm just too kind to help you find a typo among
thousands of lines you wrote and look so clear.

file://localhost/j:/ is what Opera uses when you do a File Open.

you could in theory leave out the localhost with
file:///J:/

Note the three /s.

I used the first form since I thought it made it clearer the file was
supposed to be on the local machine.
