Forge Not Working on Mac OS X Lion

Hi all, I can't seem to get Forge working on Mac OS X Lion. I downloaded both of the last couple of versions of Forge, copied over the application into my Applications folder each time, and when I double click on the application nothing happens at all. Any ideas? Thanks a ton!

I updated to Lion and I am able to run Forge. Lion does not come with Java installed. Try downloading this installer from Apple Java for OS X Lion and run the installer.

When you attempted to launch Forge did you get a dialog asking you if you wanted to download and install java? Were you connected to the internet when you performed the double click on the application?

That worked, didn't know it didn't have Java. Thanks a ton! :-)
