Description ssoong 2006-08-15 14:30:02 UTC 
NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 200607161800)
1.5.0_05; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 1.5.0_05-b05
Windows XP version 5.1 running on x86
==================================================

I have no idea if this is a defect or absence of feature.
Does XML Editor have auto-complete feature?

These were the steps I did.
1. Added "LZX" to options->system->object types->XML Objects->mime & 
extensions.

2. Associated LZX.DTD (OpenLaszlo) to PUBLIC id 
http://www.laszlosystems.com/lzx.dtd
at Run Time->DTD & XML Catalogs -> User Catalog.

3. Created in my project web folder d.lzx with the following content.
<!DOCTYPE canvas PUBLIC "LZX" "http://www.laszlosystems.com/lzx.dtd" >

<canvas width="1000" height="710" title="Hello">
 <script>
   var ReaderButtonWidth=150;
 </script>
 <dataset name="device" type="http"
  src='http://localhost:8180/SOS/session/start.jsp'/>
</canvas>

These are the symptoms exhibited when editing this document.
1. Auto-complete suggestion of elements found in DTD does not pop-up.
2. starting a new tag anywhere, e.g. just after </script>, by keying in a left 
angle bracket "<", auto-complete kicks in without relenting me a chance to key 
any characters further by placing a </canvas> tag.

Is it because the DTD is inadequate, or I have missed a step in associating 
lzx.dtd in NB, or is XML Editor not capable of auto-completing from a DTD 
alone?

Ssoong,

Your PUBLIC id in 2. (http://www.laszlosystems.com/lzx.dtd). doesn't match your
PUBLIC id in 3. (LZX). Could you be confusing public and system ids?


Regards,

Matthew.
