    It woud be great if you could provide the ctrl-click / open Type under cursor functionality just like the java editor does.

    This is applicable to all deployment descriptors (web.xml, ejb-jar.xml, struts-config.xml, struts-config flow layout)

    E.g. for web.xml

    <web-app>
    <filter>
    <filter-name>NTLM HTTP Authentication Filter</filter-name>
    <filter-class>org.jcifs.http.NtlmHttpFilter</filter-class>
    </filter>

    <filter-mapping>
    <filter-name>NTLM HTTP Authentication Filter</filter-name>
    <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
    </filter-mapping>

    </web-app>

    the user could ctrl-click anywhere in org.jcifs.http.NtlmHttpFilter and open that type.
    The user could ctrl-click anywhere in ‘NTLM HTTP Authentication Filter’ go to that filter declaration.

    In struts-config.xml this could be extended to open linked pages.
    eg.
    <struts-config>

    <forward name=”failure” path=”/Error.jsp”/>

    </struts-config>
    the user could ctrl-click on ‘/Error.jsp’ to open this page.

    In jsp/html pages this could be extended to open linked urls etc.

    I think that this kind of functionality is intuitive for anyone that uses the java editor and will greatly simplify our everyday work.

    Ooooh yeah. If this could be extended to the generic XML editor, it would almost be worth the subsciption price itself.

    +2 (this is my 100th post so I get an extra vote)

    ❗ ❗ ❗
    I really wonder why/how this suggestion wasn’t put in words before!? I sure have thought about that even yesterday like “sad it doesn’t work like this”.
    yeah + lots of other votes too (maybe all users).
