OK... right again... although I was expecting a perspective to go along 
with each corresponding tool...  for example the CSS capabilities in 
eclipse seem to be syntax highlighting and features that help organize 
the code... CSS isn't too complicated as far as code structure... what 
is taxing when writing CSS is remembering all the CSS attributes, which 
version they belong to, as well as things like the colors (there are 
some std color names and when you want to create a custom color, etc)

I was hoping that eclipse would be comparable to cssed 
(http://cssed.sourceforge.net/) and bluefish 
(http://bluefish.openoffice.nl/index.html)

You mentioned installing the full WTP, but didn't say the easiest way to 
install it... does the full WTP come in the J2EE install (ie do I 
already have it?)
