Description ecerichter 2012-11-05 11:08:59 UTC 
Product Version = NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 201211020001)
Operating System = Windows 7 version 6.1 running on amd64
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.7.0_09
Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 23.5-b02

NetBeans show an error at top of the page instead pointing that user forgot to end the code block.
Even an expert would take time in a complex page until he detects the real cause of the problem.
The ideal situation would be NetBeans pointing the line of the offending block instead of the first line of the page.

See attached screenshot: the real problem is at line 12, where a block start initiated, and has not block end. NetBeans shows first line with the message "reached end of file while parsing".
