Helping a newbie :P

Hello, I am new to JAVA, I got some experience with PHP.
Java is a really nasty language, I lend some books at the library, and they all direct me to http://www.java.sun.com to download JDK.
But I just cant find the tools that are required to make a program!
Someone got time (Don't worry if I got time, summer vacation

) to help a newbie?

Please add (MSN) me on etplayer999@hotmail.com

Run through this tutorial and let us know if you have any problems. It should walk you through all the steps to get java up and working.

If you make it through that one, get started on the ones here

Practice, practice, practice is the only secret to learning java. Don't expect to get it all figured out from reading one book or doing a few tutorials

Good luck!

Good places to start (beside http://java.sun.com ):
