Hi again Milos, I tried your suggestion, created a JAR file of the Javadoc, and placed it in our company repo as
jamod-1.2-javadoc.jar Then rightclicked the dependencynode in the Netbeans project, and selected "Download javadoc and source". A small green indicator appeared next to the jar, indicating that the javadoc had been downloaded and set up. However, when i rightclick the jamod-node now, and select "View Javadoc", IE opens up with the following URL: jar:file:/C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/asty/.m2/repository/jamod/jamod/1.2/ jamod-1.2-javadoc.jar!/apidocs/index.html With the message: "This page cannot be shown"......... I don't get the javadoc integrated with the editor either. Notice that Netbeans seams to expect the javadoc to start at /apidocs/... Any ideas ?

The netbeans integrationshould survive both options.
