JSP formatter for eclipse

The "WCB: JSP front-end design" forum contains threads on issues that are related to JSP front-end design while programming a WCB (WebManager Component Bundle). The Presentation & Element component contain JSPs that will be used for front-end rendering. Ask your questions related to these JSPs here. Some example topics: integration of AJAX, use of the taglibs, how to handle multiple websites, and so forth.

Does GX by any coincidence has, or advises, to use a JSP formatter in eclipse?

I've noticed that the default formatter makes the code quite ugly, and the GX Formatter in the Guideline Audit Tools seems to be Java-only.

Example code as formatted by the Eclipse formatter:


<div class="${normalFont.className}">&nbsp;(<fmt:formatDate value="${item.publicationDate}"
                type="both" pattern="dd-MM-yyyy" />)</div>



While you would like to have


<div class="${normalFont.className}">
    &nbsp;(<fmt:formatDate value="${item.publicationDate}" type="both" pattern="dd-MM-yyyy" />)
</div>

No.

You're free to format your JSP as you like.
The coding guidelines don't impose any format.
