Hi,
The html editor currently does not accept empty SPAN elements.
So,
If you write:
<div>
<span jwcid="..."/>
</ <-- here it will autocomplete close the SPAN instead of the DIV.
when editing tapestry templates this is really annoying.
Is there anything I can do to "convince" the html editor to accept the
empty SPANs?
Cheers,
Ron

yes, i do use it for editing tapestry templates, but even without
tapestry, there could be situations where one uses empty spans for
layout (like defining background image and min size aso) -
also, I can not imagine why eclipse should not simply understand the />
at the end of the span - its empty basta ! :)
writing </span> instead of /> is a solution but not a pleasing one.
thaxn,
Ron
