The Java Sun site has an extreme amount of information on Java and all its uses. In fact, it is a one stop shop for all Java needs. Also, the use of search engines like Google can increase the amount of info available. I suggest that you try these options so that you may better understand the systems and languages you are using instead of posting a question everytime someone suggests a new direction. Learning how to help yourself is much better than depending on others.
