Description loko007 2011-12-02 20:31:46 UTC
the option to autocomplete quotes is really crazy:
when you enter <input id=", sometimes you obtain <input id="|"  (| = position
of the cursor) and sometimes it give <input id=""|, and you must go backward to
correct the mistake. it never give the same thing.
i lost a lot of time because i'm always correcting the mistakes of the IDE...

and when you write <input id=xxx  />, you forgot the quotes and you go backward
to add quotes, the IDE add TWO quotes like that :
<input id=""xxx""  />
after, when you want to delete, one quotes, it delete TWO quotes like and you
obtnais <input id=""xxx  />

correct that please, it's horrible !!!...

or add an option to avoid this autocompletion in order to active bracket
completion without quotes completion
