This info window you see down here appears every time some CSS property or HTML attribute is written. The one on the top contains documentation about that element, and I dont want it to appear as it is very annoying when coding.

How can I make it not appearing? I've searched on Tools - Hints but cant fins this option.

Click on Tools--->Java Platforms.

Classes tab will be open by default,please switch it to Javadoc tab!

NetBeans IDE

There will be a manual entry for javadoc like http:\\docs.oracle.com/java/api/...,kindly click on Remove button,close this window and then restart Netbeans IDE!!!

This effect will be done and you won't be seeing any popups!

If it doesn't help,please leave a comment!

    Best option and also,please save all the contents of your open project! Then,try the same as I hinted! If not found,I'll suggest you updating OR some other option but I don't have Netbeans 7.4 RIGHT NOW! SO,please mention what step you're taing first! But,please try my second suggestion related to closing and then trying the same options! – Am_I_Helpful Sep 01 '14 at 15:23
