I also am not sure what I'm supposed to do with Sun's packages.
Too bad they don't have enough sense to put deb's out there.
How do I get java working?
   

in sid is a package called "java-package" that will make a .deb out of
sun's .bin. I have used it and got java 1.5 working (in firefox as
well).
 

The following link is a very good step-by-step tutorial for installing 
Java.  It is predicated upon having sarge installed though.   I suppose 
you could do it using woody, but you may have to upgrade some packages 
to do so.   I've never tried it on woody.
