If there is some trouble with installing downloaded files, try to get packages over the command line:

Open a new terminal.
Set this command: sudo apt-get install icedtea–7-plugin openjdk–7-jre

Done.

Note that OP probably asks for installing proprietary JDK, not OpenJDK. – Danatela May 23 '14 at 07:24

You could just add a repository to your accepted sources. This is the one I used:

The site gives you step by step instructions. Simple and easy.
