Package: eclipse
Version: 3.2.1-6
Severity: normal

I'm trying to download the example plug-ins referred to in the Java
Development User Guide, Getting Started, Basic Tutorial, "Creating
your first Java project" section in the Help system.

The section contains a the instructions:
  "Go to the http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/  page "

Clicking on the link takes me to the download page, where I can select
a file. This takes me to a mirror selection page with a download link
[1]. Clicking that link does nothing. Besides I cannot get back to the
tutorial because the "back" button seems to have disappeared...

The same page in Konqueror works correctly.
