Quick Tip: Automatically Close Tags in CFBuilder

When I first started using CFBuilder, I missed one of the conveniences of Flex Builder: automatic closing of tags. This means that when you type <cfquery>, CFBuilder should insert a closing </cfquery> tag right away, as Flex Builder does for MXML tags.

This wasn't happening for me, and that's because the preference for doing this was turned off in my preferences. To fix this, go to:

Preferences -> ColdFusion -> Editor Profiles -> Editor -> Typing, and make sure that "Auto-close tags" is not set to "Never."

That little fix saved me a bit of time and more than a little redundant typing.
