Strange pause/lockup in HTML editor [message #637193] Thu, 04 November 2010 14:40 Go to next message

I have noticed a strange behavior in the HTML editor, and was able to find a case where it does not happen, and where it happens consistently ...

If I create a new HTML file with the 'new' wizard, and simply click 'finish' after naming it, I get a minimal default HTML file in the editor. If I then move the cursor to after the body tag and type <h3> I get what I expect which is <h3></h3>

If, however after naming the html file I press 'next' and select 'HTMl 4.01 Strict', and click 'Finish' and then do the same as before, ie type <h3> - something very different happens. After I type the 'h' character, Eclipse hangs - without apparently using any CPU - and completely blocks the UI for about 30-45 seconds - and then proceeds as normal. This only seems to happen the first time for each editing session on that file, after that it works OK. If I save and close the file, and then re-edit it, the first time I enter <h I get the same 30-45 second hang.

Can anyone explain this?

Hi Chris,

This may be a bug. It looks like at some point, the code path checks if an inputstream can be created from the URI http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd. It seems that things get held up when trying to read from the Socket.

I guess the primary problem is that we're not using the DTD that's part of our standard schemas JAR.

Chris, it looks like if you change the template for Strict so that the public ID is: -//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN

Leaving the system ID as it is should still cause the strict.dtd to be used and you won't have this hang.

Yes, changing the template worked. Of course I had to edit all my existing pages as well. Now I do not get the pause ever.

So now my first line looks like:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
