I had netbeans 6.9, and i was trying to edit javascript on it. However, I keep getting code errors in my .js files. I can’t even create a new javascript template. I tried upgrading to netbeans 7.01, but this doesn’t change. I also enabled the JAVA plugin, but it doesn’t help.

Anyone know what’s going on?

    I get a bunch of errors where it says “unclosed character literal” or
    “character, interface, or enum expected”

    I suspect you’ve somehow configured NetBeans to handle *.js files as Java, which is an entirely different language.

    Go to Tools-> Options-> Miscellaneous-> Files and find js in the “File Extension” combo. The “Associated File Type (MIME)” input box should say text/javascript.
