Eclipse - Javascript code validation in JSPs

Question

Is there a way, in Eclipse, to enable some kind of code check for Javascript inside a JSP? I have some code between <script> tags and when a syntax error occurs I cannot easily find where the error is... This is very annoying...

NOTE in Window > Preferences > Validation I enabled Client-side Javascript validator, JSP Content validator and JSP Syntax validator...

I'm pretty sure JEE Package (the one with WTP) has some JS validation, cannot check out at the moment. Which packages do you have? — BigMike

@BigMike I have the JEE Package (v3.7)... the JS validation works for .js files, but it seems not working for code in JSP. But, I'm not sure if the problem depends on some configuration I set... What can I check? — davioooh

First thing that comes to my mind is to check JSP editor's options and global Validators' options. — BigMike

I just verified what you say, it doesn't seem to validate mine as well! But I somehow don't notice them. — adarshr

@adarshr probably I noticed that because I'm a bad javascript programmer... :D — davioooh

Right click your project
Select Properties -> Builders
Check the "JavaScript Validator" (By default, It should be)

What if there is no "JavaScript Validator" in the list? (it is a maven project in my case)
