I'm not sure I'm asking the question correctly and I did search highlighting but I got lost.

So I would like it if I could have code writer highlight HTML section of code so I can find the beginning and end of the section, If I place the cursor <div id="header"> I would like Code Writer to highlight the end of that div. Is that possible ?

Given the following

<div id="header">
<!--<div id="logo"><h1><a href="#">Blah Blah Blah </a></h1></div> -->
<div id="logo"> </div>
<!--
<div id="buttons">
<ul>
<li class="first"><a href="" title="">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="Gallery.html" title="">Gallery</a></li>
<li><a href="#" title="">Blah1</a></li>
<li><a href="#" title="">Blah2</a></li>
<li><a href="#" title="">Blah3</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
-->
<div w3-include-html="MenuButtons.html"></div>
<script>
includeHTML();
</script>
</div>

Hi Domenic,

Unfortunately since we don't have a parser in place for the HTML file type at this time, we don't have a way to locate the end of the tag block.

That's too bad.  I see this question was aked 7 yrs ago ( https://www.actiprosoftware.com/community/thread/21260/highlight-closing-tags-in-html )

I guess if I want this feature I'll have to switch to Notepad++

The latest build of this product (v4.2.42) was released 4 years ago, which was after the last post in this thread.
