no more code-hints with html?
Submitted by tomasio on Tuesday, 18 September, 2007 - 21:18
e.g.: &[auml;] [ouml;] [uuml;] whereas the brackets shall visualize the code-hint which in earlier versions of my jedit (4.3pre, Windows XP and Mac OS 10.3.9) popped up with suggestions how to complete my html code. It also closed tags: when I wrote some text here ] to close the tag appropriately. Monospaced Programmers fonts like Profont seem to work bad with JEdit on my Apple, as the caret showing where you are editing is misplaced. sometimes i wanted to delete an unwanted space and it started deleting some letters before that. and last, but not least the feature I miss most bitterly. The brackets to the left of the gutter which are connecting the starting and end tags. strangely enough this seems to work only with CSS code. here is a explanatory screenshot. Does anybody has any solution to these incidents? Or could you give me a clue of what I am doing wrong? THX in advance, -- tomasio

I am using jEdit 4.3pre10 on Windows and Ubuntu/Gnome. After installing the XML plugin and it's dependents, all features you are asking for are working for me:
  • completion for HTML entities and tags
  • closing tags
  • showing corresponding tags with a bracket in the gutter and with a rectangular mark around it
  • even with a non-proportional font
You could check if you have current versions of jEdit, plugins and Java. If completion doesn't work immediatly, maybe you have to manually start parsing the document with Plugins, SideKick, Parse Buffer. Also look at the options for Plugins, SideKick, General, Code Completion Options, and Plugins, XML, XML/HTML.
 
problems are starting to clear up

Hello Redoute,

I just upgraded to jEdit 4.3pre11 and after upgrading the XML plugin the
showing of corresponding tags with a bracket and the rectangular mark works again. Strangely enough, all other functions (like tag completion and closing tags) don't, even if I check them in the plugin options dialogue. Any further suggestions?
