How to change PHP Smarty plugin template file extension in NetBeans?

Question

NetBeans uses PHP Smarty Framework plugin for *.tpl files. Is it possible to change this to *.htm? I use .htm extension for smarty templates and would like to benefit from this PHP Smarty plugin. How can I do that?

Answer 1

In NetBeans (with the PHP Smarty Framework plugin installed):

1. Click on the Tools menu, and select Options
2. Click on Miscellaneous located toward the right side of the top icon bar of the Options dialog.
3. Click on the Files tab.
4. In the File Extension combo-box field, select htm.
5. In the Associated File Type (MIME) field, change the value to TPL (text/tpl).
6. Click OK

To restore the original behavior, repeat the above steps, except select HTML Files (text/html) in step 5.

I found http://wiki.netbeans.org/FaqCplusPlusDefaultExtensions , unfortunately it's only for C/C++ .

The php-tab should have something like it as well...
