some more ideas on improvement

1) Auto-complete for javascript.

As in the last few days I've done some heavy JavaScript coding, where I had to modify a lot of CSS properties that are set in stylesheets, I thought maybe it's not as hard to implement an auto-complete feature for JavaScript, let's say I write
el = document.getElementById('el_id');
el.style.[ appears a list of properties related to javascript object style ]
let's say, you could use this:
http://codepunk.hardwar.org.uk/css2js.htm
as a reference.

Probably I won't do any heavy javascript coding in the near future, but I guess that would be a nice feature to have.

2) Probably a bug, but I'm not sure about this:
http://3a3-interactive.net/temp/bug.png
Got it by selecting View -> Object browser
The same thing for View -> Markup browser
(Version 5.2.5.40)

Hope it helps :)

P.S. apnika tev uz mailu rakstīt, lai pārāk netraumētu :P

3) Way to duplicate a text block or line without putting it into a clipboard.

I use Zend studio a lot, and there is a feature - you can select a text, press some shortcut (in Zend it's Ctrl+D) and the editor duplicates the text
Let's say I write
Code: Select all
asdf

Select it, Press Ctrl+D, and I've got
Code: Select all
asdfasdf

It's really useful when you build some kind of tabular data view, like
Code: Select all
<td>' . $dataArray[''] .  '</td>

Select it, press ctrl+d as many times as many cells you need and get let's say:
Code: Select all
<td>' . $dataArray[''] .  '</td><td>' . $dataArray[''] .  '</td><td>' . $dataArray[''] .  '</td>


Afterwards, just fill in the array indexes and you're done, instead of writing all those <td></td>

besides in Zend, this text duplication does not occupy clipboard, and that really helps some times :)

1) Great! Thanks for that reference. Usually lack of good information source causes the lack of such features as Auto Complete or Syntax Highlighting for particular language.

2) Please re-download the full version. Present version 5.3.2.x solves a lot of problems.

3) Good idea. I'l think about this.

P.S. Forums tas ir labi :)
