If I'm in Netbeans and I want to wrap a div
tag around the sentence "hello world"
, I know I can start typing a div
on the left side then press CTRL + Space to finish the div
tag on the left side of the sentence. However, is there a shortcut such that I can finish the div
on both sides of the sentence <div> "hello world" </div>
without having to first write it on the left side, then click on the right side and write </div>?

Shortcut works. Ok. But Default value to "Surround with Tag" is DIV. Can I change it ? – pauluZ Aug 27 '19 at 21:03

I didn't find any tag wrap option in netbeans but discovered an alternative. Install emmet plugin and use wrap with abbreviation from Edit>Emmet>Wrap with Abbreviation. For details check the following link...

The default tag offered is DIV but if you type an alternative such as P it replaces the tags at both ends of the selected text.
