When I run my javascript/jquery/html code in Eclipse Oxygen JEE, it brings up firefox by default. Somehow it knows that I also have chrome, because when I right click on my index.html file in the project explorer and select "Debug As", I get to pick either "Debug on Server" or "Chrome/Chromium Debugger".

If I go to the tool bar and select, Windows --> Web Brower, I can pick from 'default browser', 'firefox' or 'chrome'.

How do I let Eclipse know that I have 'Firefox Developer Edition' installed and to use that when I debug?
