(Answer) (Category) FAQ-O-Matic : (Category) JBuilder 5 Known Bugs :
Help | Java Reference does not take you to the correct API JavaDoc.
There is a bug in the JB5 help index. It takes you to the javax API Javadoc instead of the java API Javadoc.

To find the java API Javadoc from the javax API Javadoc,

  1) Open the 'Content' tab on the left side of the Help viewer.  
  2) Double click on 'Java 2 JDK 1.3 Documentation' to expand the topic.
  3) Click on 'Java 2 Standard Edition 1.3 API Documentation'.

This gets you to the same place JB4 took you.

Try renaming the file:

 jbuilder5/doc/j2ee12_docs.jar

to

 jbuilder5/doc/zj2ee12_docs.jar

On Unix this changes the order the files are searched and seems to solve the problem. J2EE topics are still findable and the Help | Java Reference works as it did in JBuilder 4.

Unix users, be certain to use a lowercase 'z', not an uppercase 'Z'.
