Using javascript editor in my eclipse

Question

I am using Ubuntu 12.04. I have installed eclipse in it. I want to write javascript files in eclipse so I installed one javascript plugin (Programming Languages -> javascript development tools) in eclipse. When I write Java programs I get default proposals. Like when i just write System. I get a list of menu that contains properties of System class. But why this is not happening with Javascript files. When I write document. and press CTRL + SPACE, I get no "No Default Proposal Message". Let me know what I am missing here.I just want the Default Proposals when I write js code in eclipse.

Answer 1

You need to enable Other Javascript Proposals option in the default content asiist list.

To do that,

1. Go to Windows >> Preferences
2. Then Javascript >> Editor >> Content Assist >> Advanced
3. In the right pane, make sure Other Javascript Proposals is ticked as shown in the image below:
