Description Tomas Kianicka 2008-03-06 16:59:07 UTC 
Is there some way how to select the content of the tag (text between tags) in HTML? I hoped that Ctrl + Shift + '.' will
work, but it didn't. 
This quick content selecting would be very handy in HTML, JSP, XML and other structured format development.
Comment 1 Marek Fukala 2008-03-06 17:35:36 UTC 
Yes, that would be nice. Does any netbeans editor support such feature? Just asking where you find the Ctrl+Space+DOT
shortcut.
Comment 2 Tomas Kianicka 2008-03-06 20:01:38 UTC 
Yes, this feature is aviable when editing Java code.

Sorry for confusing with described shortcut - it is Alt + Shift + '.' to enlarge selected code area, Alt + Shift + ','
for selecting smaller code area (opposite of previous).
Comment 3 Marek Fukala 2008-03-07 07:42:06 UTC 
OK, would be handly for tag based editors, thanks.
