Cursor Movement Accelerators

[me]

I find myself constantly changing hand postions from the keyboard to the mouse to move the cursor between xml start and end tags. A keyboard accelerator that moves the cursor to just before the next ending tag would help tremendously. Something like CTRL-n.

Hi,

Actually there is an action that moves the cursor between the start and end matching tags. See the "Go to matching tag" action (CTRL+Shift+G) in the contextual menu.

Hope that helps,
George

I would like to second this query and extend the thought. It would be very helpful to have a shortcut key that would move the cursor past the next tag. This is especially useful when typing text between a pair of tags and then needing to move beyond the end tag to continue typing (e.g. <li><em>xxxx</em>yyyy</li>, moving from xxxx to yyyy).

CTL-SHIFT-G seems to require that the cursor be in a tag.

For reference, I'm using the7.0 version plugin in Eclipse 3.2m4.

Thank you
