I like to change the "OccurencesOccurrences" color to orange or purple, which can be more easily noticed then the default color of greygray.
JSEclipse
JSEclipse is an editor for javascriptJavaScript. It supports AJAX, and the Outline feature is more precise then others, as far as I have ever tried.

Buttons click bug under Ubuntu 9.10
EnvEnvironment:
Ubuntu 9.10 with Eclipse 3.5(Downloaded from Eclipse website, not installed from Synaptic).
Bug:
Some buttons in eclipse window do not response to mouse click (A little more precisely saying, it does not response to mouse release events)
SolutionWorkaround:
Before staring eclipse, set the environment variable of GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1bash$ 1
Panel |
---|
bash$ export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1 |
ProblemCoin of this workaround:
When using eclipse restart function, the environment variable will not be set. So you have to avoid use using restart function in eclipse.
See here Refer to launchpad for details.

SVN Support for Eclipse Helios on Debian Squeeze
If you have trouble to install SVN support for Eclipse Helios on Debian Squeeze, this page may help you.
Basically in a fresh Helios install I first installed the Subversive SVN Team Provider from the early access location which as of 2011-01-19 was:
No Format http://download.eclipse.org/technology/subversive/0.7/update -site/
(This is as opposed to installing it from the Helios update site, which did NOT work.)
