Stephen Friedrich - 01 Sep 08 17:05 Definitely. Should work for id also. When the element already has an id "foo", then "#foo" should be in the list of suggested names in the dropdown.

Stephen Friedrich - 01 Sep 08 17:10 Oh, and if has no id, then entering "#foo" should automatically add id="foo" to the element, just like entering ".foo" should add class="foo". It should also work for JSF component, for example the inlineStyle attribute of a Trinidad component (IDEA already treats the attribute contents as CSS anyway).

Alexey Pegov - 01 Sep 08 17:20 Stephen, it should already suggest an existing ID or CLASS if any in the recent Diana EAP build. Did it?

Stephen Friedrich - 01 Sep 08 23:51 Oh yeah, if I already have an id resp. a class then IDEA offers them. However the typical scenario is that the tag has neither - after all if the original programmer (which could have been me in a hurry to meet a deadline) had taken care to add a style class, he would probably not have added inline styling. Even if a style class is present, it might be a generic one, and I might want to add a second style class. So please if I type an id selector like #foo, then add the id="foo" attribute and if I type a class selector like .foo, then add a style class. Hm, the only open question is what to do if the tag already has id="foo", and I enter "#bar" when I try to extract the CSS. Probably an inline error message in the dialog would be best.
