AFAIK, the local file system URL would have to point to the directory where
"package-list", "index.html" and "packages.html" reside. E.g.:
"X:\j2sdk1.4.1_01\docs\api\". The same would apply here for other third
party library javadoc locations.

Well, in the case of "docs\api\java\util\ArrayList.html" it should normaly
work, except if the Sun JDK javadocs themselves will contain/have broken or
unsatisfied links. In this case it's the fault of Sun and not of Eclipse.
