| <h1>Web Tools Platform 1.0 M4 - New and Noteworthy</h1> |
| <p>This milestone focussed primarily on API definition, cleanups, and |
| documentation. The SSE team still cooked up a few goodies, though:</p> |

| <td align="left" valign="top" width="85%"> |
| <p>At long last there are now Wizards for creating HTML files and |
| JavaServer Pages. Both are located within the Web category and |
| support creating files using user-definable Templates.</p> |
| <p><img border="0" src="newhtmlwizard.jpg" |

| <p></p> |
| <p>Templates using the <i>New HTML</i> and <i>New JSP</i> contexts |
| will be offered in the corresponding wizards.</p> |

| <td align="right" valign="top" width="15%"><b>Editing custom file |
| types</b></td> |
| <td align="left" valign="top" width="85%"> |
| <p>In Eclipse 3.1M6, a new preference page to edit content types and |
| their associated file names and character sets was added under the |
| General/Editors preference page.</p> |
| <p><img border="0" src="content-type-preferences.jpg" |
| alt="content type preferences" /></p> |
| <p></p> |
| <p>The XML, HTML, JSP, CSS, DTD, and JavaScript source editors are |
| associated with the content types of the same name. Adding a custom |
| file name or file name extension to those content types will allow |
| those files to be edited with the appropriate editor, as well having |
| them be treated as that content type throughout the IDE.</p> |
