Description sapanparikh18 2009-12-22 08:09:13 UTC
There are many useful features available while editing Java files but when it comes down to JSPs they disappear. For example; loop suggestions does not show up, after typing "while" or "for" and hitting ctrl+space does nothing. 
Icon to comment multiple line as well as the shortcut does not exist. 
Auto import does not work.
If these features can be brought into JSP editor it will be a blast.
Thanks

One more useful feature missing in JSPs. 
refactoring (especially renaming variables.)
Comment 2 sapanparikh18 2011-04-25 05:32:36 UTC
One more feature missing. While selecting a variable or a keyword combination of "Ctrl+Shift+arrow" keys select the first camelCase part of the word. For example in camelCase it will only select "case"
This does not work in Jsps.
