CodeLobster IDE

Where can I define how the auto-formatting is done?
for example when I do the auto-format I get this:
<li>
<a href="index.html">
Home
</a>
</li>
I want it to be like this:
<li><a href="index.html">Home</a></li>
Is there a way I can set it so that certain blocks stay on the same line?
or even:
<li>
<a href="index.html">Home</a>
</li>

Are there auto-format options, and if so where are they?

Thanks.

Hi.

Codelobster hasn't auto-format option that you described.

Codelobster has ability to format code -> look at the top Edit menu.

We are going to improve format feature soon.

I second Sheridan's request. I mistakenly hit the format option under the Edit menu. I ended up with an ever progressing tab stops, so that each node of my XML was pushed to the right. Only way to fix this was to go through my 1097 line xml and push them back.

Another nice feature to be added would be something like a xml validation check or auto syntax checker for xml and strict coded x/html language. This would help making sure that all nodes are closed properly. This is one feature of Notepad++ that I enjoyed.

but after seeing that you guys have a plug-in for jQuery and CodeIgniter, I am really trying to use your product. I typically spend 50% of my time modifying (by hand) XML files and the other 50% in jQuery/CodeIgniter.

respectfully,
Tony

Ctrl+A (select all)
LShift + Tab (indent)

Hi, Energetic Pixels.

1) Ctrl+Z will return your code into previous state.

2) Codelobster highlights all unclosed XML/HTML tags.
So you may check easy that all nodes are closed properly.
