JavaScript Support

JavaScript is a scripting language designed to add interactivity to HTML pages.

Zend Studio provides support for JavaScript features in standalone JavaScript files as well as in PHP files and projects.

Some of the JavaScript features available for PHP projects and files are:

• JavaScript Element Outline - JavaScript elements will be displayed in the Outline view.

• JavaScript libraries will be added to the Include Paths of PHP projects for which JavaScript support has been enabled.

• JavaScript Build Paths - Setting the JavaScript Build Path for a project will allow you to determine which elements will be included in the project's build process. This allows access to content assist and refactoring options from resources in locations other than in the project itself.

• Advanced editing functionality in JavaScript editors. For example:

• Drag and Drop behavior.  

• JavaScript Content Assist

• JavaScript Syntax Coloring

• JavaScript Code Commenting

• JavaScript Hover Support

• JavaScript Mark Occurrences

• JavaScript Smart Goto Source

• JavaScript Libraries

• Ajax Tools

JavaScript support can be added to new or existing PHP projects so that all of Zend Studio's JavaScript features are available to the project.

For a full list of features enabled for JavaScript development, see Features - Javascript Development Toolkit (JSDT) in the JavaScript Development Toolkit User Guide.

Note:

Additional user guides can be accessed from inside Zend Studio by going to Help | Help Contents, or from the Eclipse Online Documentation site (http://help.eclipse.org/helios/index.jsp).
