When I use “Format” or “Check”, I get an error dialog “The error file couldn’t be read at: /tmptidy_error.txt”. Almost seems like its trying to say “/tmp/tidy_error.txt”, but I’m not sure where I can fix the problem.
Thanks
i had the same problem as Omar.
to solve it, i’ve created the file /tmptidy_error.txt and gave everyone permission to write to it.
$ sudo touch /tmptidy_error.txt
$ sudo chmod a+wr /tmptidy_error.txt
Now tidy works well.

When I use Format-document, the format sets every element in the same indentation (I mean, it does not format).
I’m using EasyEclipse distribution of Ruby and Rails development, with this plugin.
I like EasyEclipse for PHP development. Especially the integrated SVN and Project Manager make life really easyer. I just noticed that an integrated Image viewer would be a cool gimmik. I could just stay inside my IDE
But thanks again for EasyEclipse. My first installation of Eclipse IDE - I tried to add PDE using the “Update Manager” - was a crap.
