    I brought over my existing JSP page from a previous project, and need to modify the file. Everything up to the following point is fine:

    <script language=”JavaScript”>

    Character entry after this point is messed up. Instead of allowing me to type as usual (one character after the other), cursor is moved infront of last entered character, so next entry is in front of previous character. If I type a character again, the cursor is fine for the next character, but after that next character, it moves in front of the last entered character again. And so a string results such that my typed characters are being added into the middle of the growing string.

    I don’t understand what is causing this. I do notice that if I terminate the above line with replace above with />, I don’t have typing problems, but all jsp code shows errors. And finally, after attempting various things, editor starts to completely get messed up and copies parts of file into other places in file (as if a part of the view is captured and overlayed onto another part that I happen to scroll to).

    I know this sounds weird, but it’s frustrating, and I can’t seem to create any JSP pages with javascript that have embedded <% %> jsp code.

    Any help offered would be greatly appreciated!

    Would you be able to send me a test project to support@genuitec.com ATTN Riyad, so I can test this? Please be sure to include a link to this thread so I know why I’m receiving the file.

    One of my developers just had this same issue (the workaround mentioned worked too). Here is the config summary below. I will mention that editing JSP’s have always been problematic for me in general. Usually I only have problems copying and pasting. However this problem is so bad that I am considering trying to find a way to change the association to always use the plain text editor.

    bbohl,
    Would you be able to download our all-in-one intsaller for our new 5.5M1 release and install it to a new temporary location and run it (creating a new workspace) then import your project (copying it into the new workspace, it’s the option at the bottom of the import window) and see if the editing error is still occuring?

    Unfortunately I am required to use Eclipse 3.1 at the moment.
