For the sun-web.xml DD file, for example, there is an edit menu item on the node. This edit is handled by j2eeserver. If you use this action n times, you'll have n editors opened... P3, but maybe P2 in my mind... The server specific DD file handling is not perfect yet... This might shows other issues. so J2EE_BLOCKER bug.
Might be link to sometimes bad sync between xml editing or config editing.. In fact, the config dd editor content has to be saved in order to be visible inside the XML editor. So we need to extend j2eeserver to sync the xml file memory model when the config editor is closed or DD files are changed via API calls
Fixed. Diff: http://j2eeserver.netbeans.org/source/browse/j2eeserver/src/org/netbeans/modules/j2ee/deployment/config/ConfigDataObject.java.diff?r1=1.19&r2=1.20
