    Default Writing an extension

    Dear Friends,

    I want to write an extension for Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 and also add an
    autocompletion-feature.

    Is there a good tutorial for adding autocompletion?
    I only want to know how to create a popup with custom listed textual content
    when the user begins typing an unfinished function name.

    I know that I can add custom function names and keywords manually to
    Dreamweaver.
    But in this case the extension I want to write should handle that, because
    those function names are dynamic.

    Thank you for your help and support!
    With best regards

    InnoRex,

    There are API calls for you to dynamically add functions to the ones
    recognized by the Code Hints engine. Take a look here:
    [url]http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Dreamweaver/10.0_API_Ref/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d117f9e09bcf-7ed2.html[/url]

    This reference is for DW CS4, but (I think) those calls are supported
    back to DW MX.

    HTH,
    Randy
