Hi, 
	I to am using Mozilla 1.4 ( I beleive I failed to mention that in my original 
post ) and I compiled it out of ports. I had heard that Java 1.3.1 worked 
well with Mozilla, so I wne to try to install it. However when I try I get 
the following.

dl# cd /usr/ports/java/jdk13
dl# ls
Makefile        files           pkg-message     scripts
distinfo        pkg-descr       pkg-plist       work
dl# make package
===>  Building for jdk-1.3.1p8_2
# Start of jdk build
i386 Build started:   1.3.1-p8-n4458575-030909-18:44
ERROR: Your BOOTDIR environment variable does not point
       to a valid Java 2 SDK for bootstrapping this build.
       A Java 2 SDK 1.3.1 build must be bootstrapped against any
       1.3 build. Please update your ALT_BOOTDIR setting, or
       just unset it, and start your build again.

Exiting because of the above error(s).
gmake: *** [sanity] Error 1
*** Error code 2

Stop in /usr/ports/java/jdk13.
dl#

the make file in jdk13 has the following (I dont know if it of any relevence)
MAKE_ENV=       ALT_BOOTDIR="${JDK13DIR}" \

Did you have any of these issues when compiling jdk13?
If you did, can you please let me know how you got around it.

Thanks

David
