I typically download it from java.com, and then extract it to 
/usr/local, and then symlink to any needed executables to /usr/local/bin.

I also symlink the plugin to /usr/lib/iceweasel/plugins.

Your question is a bit vague, and I suspect my answer is a bit vague 
also. If this doesn't address your issue, feel free to re-port with 
additional info/questions.
