PhpStorm can apply code style rules for specific languages with the Reformat Code command. PhpStorm can also recognize a language embedded within a file of another language (known in PhpStorm as 'Language Injection'). So, I expect that a language would be subject to its code style rules wherever the language is used -- whether embedded or in its own file.
I've found that this works as expected for css/js within an html file, but not for language injections within PHP files. PhpStorm will recognize css within a heredoc, and html as a heredoc and in single- and double- quoted strings -- yet reformatting does not work in any of these cases.
Short of using an intermediary file to reformat the code, how can I get PhpStorm to reformat these sections of code? I am using PhpStorm 6.0.3 for Mac.
Their documentation states:
PhpStorm supports full coding assistance for:
CSS and JavaScript in an HTML or XML file.
CSS, JavaScript, and SQL outside PHP code blocks and inside PHP string literals.
The second bullet seems only half true, as css/js/sql are recognized but not subjected to code styles inside PHP string literals. And injected html is not specified; but between PhpStorm recognizing the language injections and its capability to apply code styles to an arbitrary selection, all the pieces for formatting embedded languages seem to be there. What am I missing?
To reformat injected code according to PhpStorm code styles Preferences, select the injected code and open the Intention Actions list (Alt+Enter), and select "Edit __ Fragment" to edit it in it's own dedicated window (documentation). In this window, code formatting will work as expected.

I'm using Visual Studio Code (1.17.1, on MacOS 10.13 AND Windows 10) developing an asp.net core mvc web app using razor templating.
Visual Studio Code supports Emmet (https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/emmet)
My issue is that Emmet works correctly in HTML files, but will not work in razor CSHTML files.
I've found:
To enable the Emmet abbreviation expansion in file types where it is not available by default, use the emmet.includeLanguages setting. Make sure to use language ids for both sides of the mapping.
https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/emmet
but it doesn't indicate where to find a list of "language ids". I tried searching for it, but you can imagine what happens when you search for programming language id!
Is there a way to tell Emmet in VS Code to treat cshtml files as html files? Is there any other way to get this to work (besides renaming the files, which is another solution out there)?
According to this link, the corresponding language for *.cshtml files is razor, thus you need to specify it in the emmet mappings as follows:
"emmet.includeLanguages": {
"razor": "html"
}
updated:
Press Ctrl+K than M (Ctrl+K,M) than select highlighter from the dropdownlist you want this is a common shortcut. very useful. even works for any file types. ie. create a new file and code some xml or what language you want than Ctrl+K,M you can specify/override ide hilighter on the fly. very useful shortcut. try it. you won't forget Ctrl+K,M. one of most useful hotkey combination I ever use in vscode. by this way code-completion wakes up and works as language you selected.
in vscode > settings.json
I added the related codes mentionel above. emmet worked for cshtml files.
"emmet.includeLanguages": {
"razor":"html",
"aspnetcorerazor":"html"
}
I use custom code snippet for Sublime Text like custom comments, function, reusable block code, CDN and more.. but I could not do that in WebStorm and PhpStorm IDE.
Here is my building block code snippet (comments) for Sublime Text:
/*============================

and this code blocks for HTML5 comments

Moreover I'm new user for JetBrains software. Can I use custom code snippet above in JetBrains software ?
It's called Live Templates in JetBrains IDEs.
Available at Settings/Preferences | Editor | Live Templates.
You can use existing Live Templates as is, alter them to your needs or create your own.
Creating own is better be done in own group -- they will be stored in separate config file so easier to share, no possible conflicts with built-in ones (easier to update between versions etc.). It also makes perfect sense to use separate group per language -- the same abbreviation can be used for different languages/context but abbreviation within the same group must be unique.
BTW -- I'd say -- do not edit built-ins at all -- just disable specific built-in template and create your own version of it in separate group. This way you can always see what fix/change devs have made in new IDE version etc.
Full official tutorial/how-to is available here: https://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/PhpStorm/Live+Templates+%28Snippets%29+in+PhpStorm

https://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/PhpStorm/Tutorials
in particular (since you have used Sublime in the past): https://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/PhpStorm/PhpStorm+for+Users+of+Text+Editors
Finally I get a tips ! PhpStorm allows you to create your own live templates (code snippets) to optimise your workflows.
Open the settings dialog and head into Editor | Live Templates, you can see the available live templates grouped by language. To add a new template click the + (plus) button and select Live Template. Specify the abbreviation (the short bit of text you type that will be expanded to the full code snippet) and a description.
Then provide the full code snippet in the Template text field. You can include variables in the template in the format $<variable name>$, which will allow you to provide values when the template is expanded. PhpStorm recognises $END$ as a special variable indicating the final position of the cursor after the template has been expanded and values have been provided for all variables.
Next click the Define warning text to specify which language the template is for and optionally the context it is available in.
Now the template is ready to be used. Open a file and type the abbreviation that was specified earlier, then hit Tab to expand the template. The cursor will be positioned on the first variable, provide a value then hit Tab to keep moving through all available variables. The final position of the cursor will be the location of the $END$ variable.

I don't think you can do this, however you can add custom tags in Settings > Editor > TODO.
//TODO & //FIXME are already implemented.
But this custom tags are not working for HTML.
Maybe you can find an extension to do that in Settings > Plugins.
I've been trying to get the syntax highlighting to work when exporting org-mode formatted file to HTML, but none of what I've done so far has worked. I followed the Babel configuration guide but the code block on the generated HTML page still looks plain. I have also set (setq org-src-fontify-natively t). What am I missing?
Code block syntax highlighting in Org-mode's HTML export depends on the htmlize library, which Org-mode's documentation says is included but may actually need to be installed separately:
If the example is source code from a programming language, or any other text that can be marked up by font-lock in Emacs, you can ask for the example to look like the fontified Emacs buffer¹¹⁹. This is done with the ‘src’ block, where you also need to specify the name of the major mode that should be used to fontify the example¹²⁰, see Easy Templates for shortcuts to easily insert code blocks.
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(defun org-xor (a b)
"Exclusive or."
(if a (not b) b))
#+END_SRC
...
¹¹⁹This works automatically for the HTML back-end (it requires version 1.34 of the htmlize.el package, which is distributed with Org). Fontified code chunks in LaTeX can be achieved using either the listings or the minted package. Refer to org-latex-listings documentation for details.
htmlize.el is available via MELPA.
Okay, so I've been utilizing HTML tidy to convert regular HTML webpages into XHTML suitable for parsing. The problem is the test page I saved in firefox had its html apparently somewhat precleaned by firefox during saving, call this File F. Html tidy works fine on file F, but fails on the raw data written to a file via .NET (file N). Html tidy is complaining about form tags being intermixed with table tags. The Html isn't mine so I can't just fix the source.
How do I clean up file N enough so that it can be run through Html tidy? Is there a standard way of hooking into Firefox (completely programmically without having to use mouse or keyboard) or another tool that will apply extra fixes to the html?
I had been using HTML tidy for some time, but then found that I was getting better results from TagSoup.
It can be used as a JAXP parser, converting non-wellformed HTML on the fly. I usually let it parse the input for Saxon XQuery transformations.
But it can also be used as a stand-alone utility, as an executable jar.
I wound up using SendKeys in C# and importing functions from user32.dll to set Firefox as the active window after launching it to the website I wanted (file:///myfilepathhere/).
SendKeys seemed to require running a windowed program, so I also added another executable which performs actions in its form_load() method.
By using alt+f, down six times, enter, wait for a bit, type full path file name, enter (twice) and then killing firefox, I was able to automate firefox's ability to clean some html up.
I write an application and inside of HTML code I have custom tags (of course these tags are parsed on server side and end user gets them as valid HTML code). Example of custom tag usage:
<html>
<body>
...
<Gallery type="grid" title="My Gallery" />
...
</body>
</html>
1.) How can I have eclipse recognize my custom tags inside of HTML code and add syntax highlighting to them?
2.) How can I add auto-suggestions to my custom tags? For example if I type "<Gallery " press "Ctrl+Space" - in the list of available attributes it shows me "type" and "title" and if I type "<Gallery type=" press "Ctrl+Space" I would see list of available values only for tag "Gallery" and its attribute "type".
Thanks in advance!
Not really what you want, but maybe it helps you:
You can try the Aptana Plug-in for Eclipse. It allows to write your own regular expression for HTML validation, so a custom tag would be ignored by the validator.
E.g.:
.gallery.
Eclipse allows you to add simple auto-suggestions via Templates. On
Eclipse 3.7.1 (Indigo) + PHP Dev Tools (PDT) 3.0.0: Window > Preferences > Web > HTML Files > Editor > Templates
Sadly, there is no easy way: you have to roll your own parser for this, and then add both your extra elements and the base grammar (HTML) to it.
If you have your parser, you could use it to do syntax highlighting (strictly speaking, for that simple lexing is enough); and a good parser can support content assist (auto-suggestions in your terminology).
Caveats:
Creating a parser for HTML is not an easy task. Maybe by aiming at a more often used subset is feasible.
If a parser exists, the editor parts are still hard to get well.
Some help on the other hand: you could use some text editor generators to ease your work:
Eclipse IMP http://www.eclipse.org/imp/ can in theory handle any type of parser, but currently it is most optimized for LPG. The documentation is scarce, but the developers are helpful in the forums.
Xtext http://www.eclipse.org/Xtext/ got quite a hype for creating text editors for DSLs. The generated editors are quite nice out of the box, but is not the best solution for large files. Has a really helpful developer community.
EMFText http://www.emftext.org/index.php/EMFText is a lesser known entity - I don't know it in details, but I guess, it is similar to Xtext.
I know its been a long time since this Q was asked,
but I hope this might help others like myself that reach this in search of a solution.
So, When using Eclipse (Mars.1 Release (4.5.1) - and possibly earlier - I did not check).
Go to Window - Prefrences
Then in the dialog that opens go to Web - HTML Files - Editor - Validation.
On the right side:
under Ignore specified element names in validation and enter the list of custom elements you use. (e.g. Gallery,tab,tabset,my-element-directives-*)
you might also like to go under Ignore specified attribute names in validation do the same for your custom attributes.(e.g. ng-*,my-attr-directives-*)
Two things to note:
After letting eclipse do a full validation you must also close the file and reopen it to have the warnings removed from the source code.
Using this method would ignore those attributes under any element. I don't think there is a simple way to tell it to ignore some-attribute only if its a child of some-element.
I find templates are an ok alternative but let's see if we can encourage a more robust solution; please take a moment and vote for this: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=422584
You need to add a new HTML template.To add a new template, complete the following steps:
1) From the Window menu, select Preferences.
2) In the Preferences page, select Web and XML > HTML Files > HTML Templates.
3) Click New.
4) Enter the new template name and a brief description of the template.
5) Using the Context drop-down list, specify the context in which the template is available.
6) In the Pattern field, enter the appropriate tags, attributes, or attribute values (the content of the template) to be inserted by content assist.
7) If you want to insert a variable, click the Variable button and select the variable to be inserted. For example, the word_selection variable indicates the word that is selected at the beginning of template insertion, and the cursor variable determines where the cursor will be after the template is inserted in the HTML document.
8) Click OK to save the new template.
You can edit, remove, import, or export a template by using the same Preferences page.
