How to auto-refresh my browser on save while using Eclipse?

I searched it on Google but was not able to find any good solutions.

how to configure my eclipse for firebase content assist in web develpment?

I use eclipse IDE for web development. It is a fairly good IDE. However, I don't know how to configure it for content assist (such as auto-complete suggestions) in doing firebase web development.
Anybody has found anything on this? I am also open to use other IDE if it provides significantly better advantages compared to eclipse?

GWT: debug events capturing/bubbling

I wonder if there is a way to perform a step-by-step debugging of the compiled GWT code, in order to determine how some events are being fired.
The interest I have on this is that I'm using SmartGWT, and for some reason the click events on their components propagate to pop up windows that occupy the same position. However this only happens in Mobile Safari.
Even more interesting it only happens with smartGWT version of onClick and not with the plain GWT onClick.
Mostly a hack for now, but I suppose it'll work (you'll have to recompile your app though):
First, compile a recent GWT from trunk: https://developers.google.com/web-toolkit/makinggwtbetter#workingoncode
Then recompile your app with source maps enabled: http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/wiki/SourceMaps
Follow the steps in the comments of this wiki page to be able to use SourceMaps in Chrome, then re-deploy your app
Get Chrome on the Dev channel: http://www.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel
Use http://www.iwebinspector.com/ to start Mobile Safari with remote debugging and then connect to it from your Chrome desktop: http://www.webkit.org/blog/1620/webkit-remote-debugging/
Finally, enable source maps in Chrome so you'll see your Java code in the Web Inspector!
See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xJl22Kvgjg for a preview of the future of debugging with GWT, that will allow this kind of things in a much less hackish way in the near future.
I don't know if there is a nice way to debug compiled javascript GWT code, but why do you need it?
For described purpose it's better to use GWT development mode with debugging options. You can add the following parametres e-Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address={PORT},server=y,suspend=n to the development mode running command, it will give an opportunity to add breakpoints to the cliend side GWT/SmardGWT source code. Then for debugging you should connect to port specified in parametres from your java IDE.

Plugins + Extensions on Safari 5.0.1

My question is very simple: Is it possible to pack plugins into extensions for Safari? For instance, the exact NPAPI plugins which work on Google Chrome also work on Safari. However in Chrome I'm shipping the plugins as a part of an extension (a CRX package). This is needed because HTML and JavaScript is injected into a specific web page, and this code uses the plugins. I do not see an option in Extension Builder to specify plugin files and I haven't come across any proper documentation saying that plugins cannot be packed into extensions.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
The first comment:
I don't think that is supported. A workaround could be a custom installer that installs both the plugin and the extension. – Georg Fritzsche
This is the only possible way to do it! FYI: Apple guys are against the idea of extensions accessing native code (ie, plugins). An obvious security loop-hole, but a necessity here! :)

how to load a web start application into eclipse rcp

I have a Webstart Apps/jnlp in which I would like to add into an already made rcp client. Can I integrate the web start application into the RCP so it will appear under the menu toolbar so if it was clicked it will load ithe application.If so How will I go about doing that, would it need to be place into as a plug-in?
Thanks for any help!
Check out this tutorial by Lars Vogel to learn how to use commands in Eclipse RCP (and enable command execution from menus).
Then, in your command handler, write the code that opens the web browser with the url of your application passed as parameter:
//Assuming 'url' is the url of your application
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getBrowserSupport().createBrowser(null).openURL(url);
Also, check out this link to learn more about Eclipse RCP browser support. Since you didn't specify whether you want this to be opened with an internal or an external browser, you might want to tweak the code I posted.
