For all the javax* classes Netbeans says javadoc not found. Anyone know how I can get javadoc to show?

It's an error that appears when you set NetBeans to use its inner webkit browser. Set an external browser in preferences, first tab.

Which doc should I download? jdk-6u21-docs.zip or j2eeri-1_4-doc-api.zip?

I added both zip to Tools > Java Platform > JDK1.6(Default) > Javadoc.

After cleaning %userprofile%\.netbeans\6.9\var\cache and restarting it still doesn't work.

What else should I do?

Edit: I have working javadoc for Java EE classes

  1. I downloaded the javadocee6.zip from here
  2. Go to Tools > servers > Tomcat 6.0 > Javadoc
  3. Press Add Zip/Folder
  4. Browse for javadocee6.zip
  5. Press Close
    It works instantly

Download the docs manually, link it to the IDE.

libraries -> properties -> select a jar -> edit -> there you go.
