This feature will help you when you change HTML in Visual studio 2012. When you modify start tag of HTML element it will update end tag automatically. You don’t have to worry about it.

ReplyDeleteI open up a file to add a single cfelseif statement to an existing cfif statement (using CFML for coldfusion) and it decides that my closing /cfif tag should magically become /cfelseif. so simple one-line code changes can unknowingly break code because MS has decided they are smarter than me at writing code.
