Some of you were asking me to tell how I got Java 1.6 and Java 1.7 to work on PowerPC OS X 10.5, but I would rather tell you how to easily get it on your own PPC Mac.
Download the file I prepared:
(http://www.mediafire.com/file/ybafhfbu4uihg5g/java_6_and_7.zip/file)
1. Download both the above file containing Java 6 and 7, and the Java Updater below.
2. Unzip both "java 6 and 7.zip" and "Java Updater.zip".
3. Drag the "java 6 and 7" folder to your Desktop.
4. Open up a terminal, and drag "Java 6 and 7 Installer.sh" into your terminal window.
5. Hit Enter, enter your password, and watch it fly.
6. Once it's finished installing Java 6 and 7, drag "Switch to Java 6.sh" or "Switch to Java 7.sh" into the terminal window, depending on what version you require. Hit Enter, then input your password if asked.
If you want to revert back to the Leopard's default Java 5, do the same with "Switch to Java 5.sh".
Don't hesitate to give feedback how it's working, and if you have any questions feel free to ask!
