HTML Autocomplete Questions

[Cavar]

1. For the INPUT tag then I type "<input " the tag auto-completes as "<input type="" />" and it puts the cursor focus at the end of the tag. Can the cursor focus be put inside the double quotes of the TYPE attribute?

2. When I create a SELECT tag it auto-completes and adds the NAME and ID attributes, then puts the cursor in between the double quotes of the NAME attribute. This is nice, but why don't other tags like INPUT and FORM automatically add the NAME and ID attributes? NOTE: In relation to # 1, I think it would still be best to put the cursor between the double quotes of the TYPE attribute, even if the NAME and ID attributes are automatically added to SELECT tags.

Great software btw. I think I'm gonna have my boss buy it today.

You can change these autocomplete settings as you see fit for yourself. Open Options -> Preferences -> Text Editor -> Auto Replace, find "<input" in the list and change the outcome to <input type="|" />. Same with other tags that you would like to adjust.

Awesome, thanks for the tip!

Oh, and as I look at all the options listed under that Auto Replace section and I'm loving what I see. Like typing <input:text to get the following HTML: <input type="text" name="" id="" />

Not only will I have my boss buy HTMLPad for work, I will definitely be buying it for personal use as well.
