NetBeans IDE 6.1 (Build 200804211638) When editing large standalone CSS files or occasionally when editing inline "style" HTML elements in a JSP, the color coding synyax highlighter fails and highlights random words with random colour that seem to have no reltaion to the code. Once this happens the only method to recover the syntax highlighting is to completely restart the netbeans. Any JSP or CSS file loaded after this error occurs is affected by the problem regardless of it's location in the project hierarchy. One odd behaviour is that once failed, if you open a JSP file for a split second the highlighting is correct and then it re-highlights everything completely wrong. Auto complete continues to work fine as does highlighting of open/close elements.
