It will be more needed when AJAX will come world wide.
Please take this RFE into account when planning new features into next release.

There are even more scripting languages, such as vbscript, php etc. Also, e.g. php supports different tags. I'd be glad, if there'd be support for this by a pluggable and configurable (per project) framework. E.g. if there were plugins for php5 and asp, one project might be configured to use <% for php, one for asp and another for jsp.
This enhancement won't definitely be part of next NetBeans release (4.2) due to resource constraints, although many people miss it. Any help from volunteer contributors to NetBeans is welcome.

I *would like* to implement javascript syntax coloring and all connected stuff like code completion, formatting etc. for next nb release. However the change will be quite extensive - there has to be implemented a new HTML multisyntax, JSPMultiSyntax must be updated along with a huge number of code to work with the new token types.
CC reporters/voters of the duplicated issues. ---- fyi, JSEclipse, a JavaScript plug-in for Eclipse http://www.interaktonline.com/Products/Eclipse/JSEclipse/Overview/

This seems like a very popular request. Currently, Ajax and other JavaScript based patterns are taking the world by storm. Even Eclipse has a respectable JavaScript editing module. Can this be targeted for 5.1? I'm wasting time right now looking for a decent editor. +1 for me! Wow... reported back in 2001..
Thats not cool! Changing the module to web (since Javascript isn't just for HTML) made the 45 votes disappear!!!! Arggh! Swithing back, in hopes they return..
Well, it looks like I've committed a mortal sin. I blew away 45 votes on this RFE... Would be nice if Bugzilla warned that the votes would be deleted! :( I do sincerely apologize to anyone who lost a vote! I'm quite embarrassed!
I think you should file a Bugzilla bug for the problem with the votes.
I reported the bug with disappearing votes: see issue 72474.

impressive features (including debugging and test-run) http://www.myeclipseide.com/ContentExpress-display-ceid-58.html
I found two duplicates: #86236 and #71371. Is there any progress here? I saw the second bug linking to: http://blogs.sun.com/roller/page/roumen?entry=javascript_support_in_netbeans
Yes, there is progress. The JavaScript support is on of the main themes, which we are discussing during next release planing. Marek takes care about the JavaScript support.

Javascript editing for both standalone files and html/jsp pages with embedded js is implemented now.
