I'm completely addicted to the suggestion and case repair capabilities of this tool.

However, it would be really useful if some of the suggestion and case repair type tools worked in XML editing as well. So when I type:

<nodeName>
</nodename>

and hit the final > it could auto-correct it to <nodeName>. Even better if it suggested nodeName for completion.

Highlighting what XML node I was in the current scope of, and detecting mismatched scope endings would be useful as well.

Default VC++ 6.0 does nothing with XML.

VS.NET does a little for XML, eg inserts </nodeName> when you type <nodeName>. VS.NET does a bit more for ASP and HTML.

For better or worse, VA X offers some help, eg suggestions and Autotext, while inside <script></script> blocks of asp, html and xml.

One mistake: we have an Autotext entry for "<A", but "<A" is not pertinent inside a <script> block. Besides, we insert "<<A". Even more useless.

ixBug=67 and ixBug=66

We could do more.
