 Installation method (aka install from the web). For Windows
 Offline Installation no space should appear.
 
 And yet, when I read about the install formats is sure looks like we
 use the Windows Offline method.

You would think so.

The problem is that our direct download URL is wrong; it downloads the
Web installer, not the full offline installer.

Fixed in next release (diff appended).

Doh! I didn't see the qb in the Sun silent install page.  I am glad that
what I reasoned was happening was correct -- just wish I had re-read the
installers page first.  grin

Maybe this is the deal with the space (from the Sun silent install page):

In the various command line examples below a space appears between the /v
and the quote (); i.e., /v . The space is required for 1.4.2_01 and higher
releases that are installed by the Windows Installation method (aka
install from the web). For Windows Offline Installation no space should
appear.

All that information and no real answer.  I love computers.

Yeah, I like progress bars too, which is why I opted for /qb instead of /qn
like Sun documents.

The package is just an InstallShield Basic MSI installer:

I am a little surprised that the space is required, since I am almost
certain I used to install the JRE without it...  I wonder what is going on
here, exactly.

But whatever works :-).

I tested the
install with both and it doesn't seem to effect the end result of having the
plugins registered but it does effect the noise level of the installation.
With /qb there is still a status window displayed while using /qn results in
absolute zen-like silence.
And here I like seeing the progress bar' because it tells me the computer 
is doing something and isn't frozen, as well as how it's going.  Just my 
two cents.
