Find matching html tags

Post by ronnieb »

Hi!

When coding Java programs, I can use ctrl+m to find matching parenthesis, curly braces and brackets. This is really really useful. However, since I code a lot of Java Servlets, theres a lot of HTML tags as well, and it would be really useful to find matching <table> </table>, <tr> </tr> as well.
Ctrl+m jumps to the closing tag, and ctrl+f finds the next string "table" which cleary isn't what one want.
I haven't found a way to do this...
I bet there are a lot of developers who share my opinion, HTML being that
"Dirty Devil Full Of evil tables" thrown upon us by the designers :)

Only if it's a 'module'

I think HTML tag matching is nice but only if it is some sort off 'add on'

About 98 percent of the time, I do not edit HTML files, and I don't want to give up keys for this.

Maybe all language specific enhancements should be build as some sort of dll or resource file, which only is loaded when a HTML file (or any other language) is loaded?
