'ArrayList' has its own URL, also, but yes.

I intended to just give the direct URL but the URL in the browser doesn't
change when I click on things in the API; it just says
"http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/index.html" no matter what I
click on.

Hint. Click on No Frames first.

That leads to
<http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/ArrayList.html>

You can then click on Frames again, which leads to:

<http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/index.html?java/util/ArrayList.html>

....

An alternative, at least on Firefox and I assume on other browsers, is
to right click in the main frame and select "This frame" then "Open
frame in new tab" or "new window". The new tab or window can be used to
construct links and then closed.

I find it more convenient than switching my working tab in and out of
frames, but YMMV.
