I've just started using WTP 1.0. It seems like this first release doesn't
do much in the way of indenting HTML; it'll reformat when I ask it to, but
that mostly involves pairing up DIVs on the same line. I'd like to be able
to indent nested tags in a more XML-like way.
I gather that eclipseTidy used to do that, but no longer seems to work in
3.1. I haven't found any alternate HTML editor plugins that offer this
functionality either.
Can anyone recommend a plugin that'll work with WTP to prettify my source?
Is this type of functionality targeted for an upcoming release yet? I
don't imagine this is very high on the priority list.

It is a know bug, or feature reuest. I don't think it would take much to do it differently, but ...
HTML is formatted that way by decign ... many well ecperience HTML editors we would like originally,
long long ago, like 2 year, said that was the prefered and expected formatting (semi-compact).
So, I'm guessing, we'd eventually want some preferences that better controlled the formpormatting so
users could poick their own styles.
If you and enough other "vote" in the bug for it to changed, and if you have some simple concrete
directions for us so we know exactly what you are talking about, to be changed .... and, sometime
to focus on it.
Thanks,
