java debug view : how to get the editor to show my steps? [message #162599]

Sorry for the NOOB question, but I have been pushing along fabulously in
my first day of using Eclipse for my Java/Tomcat application.

But now I need to step through some code which I am debugging on Tomcat
(running using the eclipse Tomcat plugin). I set a breakpoint, and the
debug view is activated when I reach the breakpoint. However, the editor
does not show the current frame in the code. when I click on 'step into'
or 'step over' the debugger shows me what line I'm on, but the EDITOR does
not reflect it!

Seems kind of silly and so could somebody please tell me how I can get the
editor to jump around my codebase and show the code as I step through each
frame ?

thanks in advance !!!!!!!!!!!!

This should work (and works for me). I suggest you file a bug report
against JDT Debug with steps to reproduce.
