Editor Bookmark Syntax

Last updated: August 25, 2008 (Coda 1.5)

Coda recognizes specially formatted comments in your code as "bookmarks". These bookmarks appear in the Code Navigator pane, and allow you to jump to the corresponsing line of text with a single click.

The bookmark comment syntax varies depending on the syntax mode being used:

CFML
<!-- !bookmark --> or <!--- !bookmark --->
CSS
/* !bookmark */
ERB
<!-- !bookmark -->
HTML
<!-- !bookmark -->
Java
// !bookmark
JavaScript
/* !bookmark */ or // !bookmark
JSP-HTML
<%-- !bookmak --> or <!-- !bookmark -->
LassoScript-HTML
// !bookmark
Perl
# !bookmark
PHP-HTML
/* !bookmark */ or // !bookmark
Python
# !bookmark
Ruby
<!-- !bookmark -->
Smarty
<!-- !bookmark -->
SQL
/* !bookmark */
XML
<!-- !bookmark -->

The word "bookmark" in these examples is what will be shown in the Code Navigator to represent the bookmark, and may be changed to any other text. For example, a valid HTML bookmark might be: <!-- !login form starts here -->
