Content assist for JSP in Eclipse?

[Alien]

HI guys,

I am currently learning JSP and Eclipse Gallileo seems to be a terrific tool to do so except it doesnt offer content assist when I hit crtl+space at the right spots which normally comes when I do normal Java apps.


Anyone knows how to activate it if Eclipse does run it for JSP?

Cheers,

Alien

Which editor are you opening the JSPs in?
Go Window->Preferences->General->Editors->File Associations and select *.jsp in the top box and then chose a JSP editor in the bottom box.

A long list for JSPs only? Sure you selected *.jsp at the top box?
Anyway, the visual ones are usually slightly slower but they let you drag and drop components and give you a quick look at what the layout is going to be like. I rarely use them. You can try any of the other JSP editors. There's no harm in trying a few of them until you get one that you are comfortable with.
