[Alphacocoa-devel] [alphacocoa:tickets] #200 xml::electricClosingAngleBracket : two issues

[Sylvain L. <syl...@us...>]

Edit : something like :

~~~
regexp -- {([\w]+:)?[\w]+} $tag tag
~~~

could be better, since the ":" is supposed to appear only if there is a prefix.
Best regards,
Sylvain

** [tickets:#200] xml::electricClosingAngleBracket : two issues**

In XML mode, xml::electricClosingAngleBracket offers to insert the end-tag of an XML element while typing the closing ">" of the start-tag.

I have noted two issues:

- with prefixed element name (QName), for instance "xsl:param", only "xsl" is inserted in the end tag. It is due to the regexp used for matching the start tag:

`regexp -- {[\w]+} $tag tag`
l.  511 of Modes/XML Modes/xmlMode.tcl
I think it could be turned into:

`regexp -- {[\w]*:?[\w]+} $tag tag`

- second ; when typing a start-tag at the very end of a document (the cursor is at the last position), the closing tag is not inserted. I havn't been able to trace the issue. It may be a common situation to enter the root element of a document and to expect it to be closed also.

Best,
Sylvain
