      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      The link : http://www.socs.uts.edu.au/MosaicDocs-old/url-primer.html
      DOES not work.

      In Java 5 JavaDoc (http://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.5.0/docs/api/java/net/URL.html) You have another link to some archive web: http://archive.ncsa.uiuc.edu/SDG/Software/Mosaic/Demo/url-primer.html
      But it does not work either.

      In Java 8 JavaDoc the link is OK: http://web.archive.org/web/20051219043731/http://archive.ncsa.uiuc.edu/SDG/Software/Mosaic/Demo/url-primer.html

      EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
      EXPECTED -
      Update or remove the link at all
      ACTUAL -
      In Java <8 Javadoc for Class URL is dropped link.

      URL OF FAULTY DOCUMENTATION :
