Amateras HTML and XML editor

Edit HTML, JSP, XML and CSS files.

Download Amateras HTML and XML editor 2.0.4 for EasyEclipse 1.2.2:

Amateras HTML is a great help to work with web files when you don't want to install "heavy duty" plugins such as Eclipse Web Tools. It provides basic highlighting and completions for HTML, CSS, as well as a basic XML.

Installing this plugin

This plugin is in the EasyEclipse Server Java, EasyEclipse for LAMP and EasyEclipse for PHP distributions.

If you install this plugin on another EasyEclipse distribution, the dependent plugin Eclipse Java Development Tools must be present in the EasyEclipse distribution, or must be installed separately.

This plugin can only run with Java 5. This excludes running on MacOS 10.3.

Getting started

You can create new HTML, JSP files with the simple wizard provided in File > New > Others.., in the Amateras section
The HTML file still opens with the embedded browser (Amateras does not register itself as default editor), so you must right-click on the file and select Open With > Amateras HTML Editor or Open With > Amateras JSP Editor to use the Amateras-provided editors.
Open the Palette view (in Windows > Show View -> Others..., Amateras > Palette) for some HTML and JSP templates

Passing:

- Create new project: File -> New -> Project, General -> Project, enter name, Finish
        - Create new HTML file: File -> New -> Other, Amateras -> HTML File, enter File name, enter Title, select DOCTYPE, Finish
        - Open file with Amateras HTML editor: Right-click on file, Open With -> Amateras HTML Editor
        - Add content: put cursor after <body>, enter "<a>some text", check that entering "</" proposes completion

- Create new project: File -> New -> Project, General -> Project, enter name, Finish
        - Create new XML file with schema: File -> New -> Other, Amateras -> XML File, enter File name, click Next, select "XML Schema"
        - unable to enter schema. Tried a URL (http://localhost/~francois/myschema.xsd), file in workspace (/x/myschema.xsd), didn\'t work
        
        The schema I used was:
        <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
        <xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
        targetNamespace="http://www.example.com/SimplePO"
        xmlns:PO="http://www.example.com/SimplePO">
        <xsd:complexType name="PurchaseOrder">
        <xsd:sequence>
        <xsd:element name="shipTo" type="xsd:string"/>
        <xsd:element name="billTo" type="xsd:string"/>
        <xsd:element name="items" type="PO:Item" 
        minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
        </xsd:sequence>
        </xsd:complexType>
        <xsd:complexType name="Item">
        <xsd:sequence>
        <xsd:element name="productName" type="xsd:string"/>
