I followed the directions on that website and I got the doc for the standard
Java API to work via Help - Help Contents and context help via F1 and shift
F2. It works great.
However, be warned that if you do not follow the directions percisely, you
might have problems. When I upgraded my VM from 1.3 to 1.4 I reapplied the
changes to get the Java API doc to work. I am not sure what I did wrong,
but I managed to get context help via F1 and shift F2 to work fine, but then
using Help - Help Contents would not find the Java API docs. After much
unsuccessful tweaking I finally I reinstalled Eclipse and followed the
directions VERY carefully and now it works fine.
