This might be more accurately categorized as a “Web Development” topic, but since I’m editing a JSP, I thought I’d place it here.

I’ve got a JSP with a <th> tag that contains an “onclick” handler. When I reformat the page using “Source-Format”, the click handler for one of my tags is reformatted incorrectly.

Here’s the “before” image:

And the “after” image:

Note that the appearance of the code isn’t so much the issue: the code is actually broken by the formatting.

Any ideas on why this might be happening? Is there something I can do to correct it?

Thanks,
Curt

Thank you Curt for bringing this to our notice. I am able to reproduce this at my end. I am afraid, I don’t have a workaround for this right now. I would suggest you to manually correct the code. I have filed a PR for the dev team to investigate this issue.

No problem — it’s a minor inconvenience. Thanks for your help, Joy!

What could help is to widen the jsp source formatter linewrapping, by changing the default width of 80 to, say, 140. This would be set under Window/Preference/MyEclipse Enterprise Workbench/Files and Editors/JSP, where you are relayed to the HTML and/or XML formatters. :-]

Good idea, Ton. Thanks for suggesting it!
