Insert spaces instead of tabs in ALL files

Question

Our device testing setup allows you to use spaces instead of tabs in all files, including .jsp and jspx. I set this parameter for the general editor, but the jsp editor does not recognize / see this option and continues to use tabs instead of spaces.

Is there a way to get the jsp editor to insert spaces instead of tabs?

Answer 1

Go to Window> Preferences and set the Indent option using spaces in the following categories:

• Web> HTML Files> Editor (covers JSP)
• XML> XML files> Editor (covers JSPX and Facelets)
• > CSS > ( )
