Cant break lines inside HTML tags in .php and .html files
Answered
Im new in PHPStorm so maybe Im missing something here, but why cant I add line braks inside a HTML tag?
In both .php and .html files, I can break lines normally (with the enter key) anywhere, except inside tags
Like, if I have:
<header>
-->cant add line breaks here
</header>
I hit enter, nothing happens. It simply does not works
This makes editing HTML inside the IDE simply impossible. What's going on?
edit: Im on linux (mint 17), using PHP Storm latest version (2016.3)

Hello,
Unfortunately I cannot reproduce this.
Could you reproduce this issue and check if any errors are being thrown to the idea.log file (you can find it via Help > Show Log in ...)?
Hi. There's a lot of errors in the log
Ive uploaded it here:

And here is a file where the problem is happening for me (but it will happen on any file with HTML on it):

And finally, Ive recorded a video of it happening, so you can understand better (and also you can see Im not crazy):

As you can see, hitting enter will not add line breaks only if the cursor is inside a HTML tag. I can even put the cursor at the middle of the tag and break lines, but not in the inside of it (meaning <tag>[[HERE]]</tag>). Its pretty weird
That may seem unexpected, but please unpack the PhpStorm tar.gz to some other folder (not to the same), run it from there and check if the issue persists.
Alright, it worked, its fixed. Thank you a lot
