When should I use inner classes?
It is nice to hide them for encapsulation reasons. But they have an unsavory syntax for instantiating them
ex: class x { class y {} };
x = new x();
y = x.new y();
This is because the inner class uses a hidden reference to the parent.
Look into this in a bit more detail and see if some guidelines can be provided.

Is there a cost difference between instantiating a class with lots of methods and a class that only has a few or no methods?
It is possible to think that a class with differeing data requirements may have different cost for instantiating them. What about different method numbers?

How can I space the contents of a div
It is possible to set the margin of a div. That will effect how much this div will offcentered from its parent. What if I want to place the contents of this an equally off centered positioning.
This can be done through an inner div and an outer div. Is there a way to do this using a single div
border and spacing properties may help. Although I have a preconceived notion that boundary is outside of the margin. I need to look into the box model one more time to determine this.

What is an effective way to style forms, buttons etc.
The usual paragraph and body styling doesnt seem to effect the html controls. The control types such as "buttons", and "select" doesn't seem to be available to the css as clasess.
One way I have seen this done is to define user specific classes for each of these controls and specify them along with the control type. This seems like a duplicate work.
Question is: Is there a way to address these html form controls via CSS?

Is there a place where I can browse the JDK source code online?
Sometimes source code is the only way to figure out how an API is implemented for sure. JDK 1.4 logging is one example. It is also possible to download the soruce distribution of the JDK.
But it is much more easier if we can find a place online where we can quickly browse through the source code. I am not sure if this is not there because of licensing requirements. I remember seeing something like that for the "mono" code base of dotnet.

Is there any way to detect an exception in finally?
A finally clause is executed at the end of a java function try block. The question is, is there a way to detect if there was an exception prior to invoking the finally block?
