Question

JavaScript Validator

Hey everyone,

I'm heavily invested in CF Builder and I am hunting down fixes and workarounds for every little thing that drives me nuts.  One thing I wanted to share is a problem with some JavaScript files.  The validation library that is used by default is "Mozilla JavaScript Validator".  I had severe slowdowns and freezes with this parser on some JS files.  The solution was to switch to using "JSLint JavaScript Validator".

You can do this like so:

Window > Preferences > HTML > Editors > JavaScript > Validation

Just uncheck the Mozilla validator and check the JSLint validator.  I hope this helps someone down the road.

Thanks for sharing.  Just in case you didn't see this recent release:  http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/coldfusionbuilder2/

Thanks.  I didn't test out the JavaScript files in question in CF Builder 2 yet, but I did download it the day it came out and played around with it for a while.  I plan on dedicating another day to it next week so I can go over all the new features more in-depth.
