Managing a custom tablib

[TheGridOne]

Hello,

Now that my regular expressions work (for those who have read my previous
post), I would like to be able to manage my firm's custom tab libray in a
DreamWeaver extension.

That is, to display an auto-complete drop-down list like those that appear
when editing HTML files, but with our own tags.

First of all, I would need to know which kind of an extension I need. I've
read the official DreamWeaver 8 documentation regarding the extension types,
but was unable to figure that out.

Then, if anyone has any clue on how to manage this drop-down list, he will be
welcome.

Cheers,

TheGridOne

You don't really need an extension for that.
Look at CodeHints folder in your DW configuration. Create your own XML file,
following the same schema, create your own CodeHints folder in your config
profil,and put your XML in it.

If you need to use it as an extension, just use a mxi file to copy the file
at the right place.

The tag hints are based off your tag library. Once you create your tag
libraries they should start showing up in the tag hints list. You should make
sure you have the correct doctypes listed for your taglibrary tag in
TagLibraries.vtm
