Hi John.
I tried using auto-completion with HTML, and got the following screenshots:
I typed: <div
I typed: [Enter]
I typed: >
I typed: [Enter]
I see nothing wrong with this sequence. Is your experience different?
Brad.

Hi,
I'm in meetings all morning. I will video my IDE this afternoon so you

Right, exactly, that makes sense.
Does that do the trick for you, John Lavelle?
Hope so!

So, if you start typing:
<
<d
<di
It will start to show two options:
<div>
<dir>
If you hit enter at the
<di
Point it will select <div> as this is the first entry.
What I’ve found to work, to stop this from happening is go
into preferences / options
Kind Regards,

I have this in the HTML editor right now:
<div
Where must I place the cursor and where/when must I press
Enter to see the problem?
With the above, I need to put the cursor at the end, i.e., here:
<div|
And then call up code completion, via Ctrl-Space, to see the
code completion.
What must I do from the above point to see the problem?

If you hit enter at this point(in the attached image)
It will complete the <div> element
This happens in HTML/XHTML files.

Nope, that's never happened to me -- and if what
you're trying to do is disable code completion just
because it pops up when you press Enter, then the
problem lies elsewhere.
Check that your code completion hasn't been mapped
to the Enter key in one way or another.

Geertjan,
The only way to disable it is to
turn it off for *all* languages,
not just HTML.
Auto complete in HTML is very
intrusive unlike say for PHP.
I find auto complete useful in
general but in HTML every time you
press enter it pops up and you have
to press Escape before typing.
Quite often, if you're changing
between languages, you forget to
press escape and have to delete the
"suggestions"

Trying to look into this, but

right?

Back when I was working
on this each such
settings had a property
that
was being saved by
NetBeans. So, just
because there's no UI
for it it
doesn't mean you can't
make a simple module
that tweaks that property
or just hand-edit an
XML in your userdir.
So now, the questions
just is how was that
property called?
You can probably learn
it by just tweaking the
property in an older
NetBeand then diff-ing
the files. I'd guess
just copying the XML to
the 12.4 user dir would
do the trick.
