Using Eclipse 3.1, ME 4 GA on win 2000 (sp4)

when I open a jsp page I get this error - "Unable to create this part due to an internal error. Reason for the failure: The Visual Web Designer is not supported on the current Browser platform. The MyEclipse 'Classic' JSP Editor has been opened instead."

2 windows open, one displaying this error the other with the jsp code in!

I'm sure this worked earlier today when I installed Eclipse & ME from scratch but not 100 % sure!

any ideas

thanks

harry

Harry,

What version of IE do you have?

The message you are seeing is displayed whenever your Browser doesn't meet the minimum requirements need to run the new MyEclipse Visual Web Designer. It requires IE6 or above to work correctly. We have had other users report that they upgraded from IE5.5 to IE6 on win2k with no issues and the Visual Web Designer functioned correctly.

IE 5.5 (sp2) - that explains it then!

as my client use's 5.5 is there anyway to turn this error off & default to the classic jsp editor?

thanks

harry

Harry you can right click on the file > Open With > MyEclipse Classic JSP Editor

thanks for that but is it possible to change the default jsp editor so I can just double-click on a jsp file?

Sure, you can change the default at Window > Preferences > Editors > File Extensions > *.jsp

excellent - that sorted it!

many thanks!
