Description Petr Jiricka 2008-02-25 17:47:50 UTC 
Found when trying to reproduce issue 102853.

1. Create a new JavaScript file
2. Choose Run -> Run File -> Run "myfile.js"

The action is enabled, but does nothing. It should either do something, or remain disabled.
Comment 1 Torbjorn Norbye 2008-02-25 21:07:53 UTC 
The "Run File" action is managed by the project system, not the editor. It's up to each project type to enable/disable
this action based on whether they can do something about the file type. In a Rails project, Run File is disabled for
JavaScript files. Since it was enabled for you, I assume you were looking at a web project?  If so, the web project
should disable it (or better yet, do something useful; for example, if possible, compute a URL for one of the JSPs which
includes this JavaScript file, and ask the browser to show it).

No, I was looking at prototype.js from the rails project.
Comment 3 Erno Mononen 2008-05-19 20:15:38 UTC 
Confirmed, the action is enabled and does nothing.
