How to enable or disable highlight matching tag

Question

In the editor the matching opening or closing tag is being selected. Looking through the documentation I've found the method jumpToMatching(Object select) but I don't see a method to disable or enable this feature.

Answer 1

I would suggest hiding it with CSS. The only drawback is that this will globally disable all bracket highlighting, not just for HTML tags.

.ace_editor .ace_marker-layer .ace_bracket { display: none }

See a working demo below:

var editor = ace.edit("editor");
editor.setTheme("ace/theme/dreamweaver");
editor.getSession().setMode("ace/mode/html");

#editor {
  position: absolute !important;
  top: 0;
  left: 0;
  bottom: 0;
  right: 0;
}
#editor .ace_marker-layer .ace_bracket { display: none }

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/g/[email protected](min/ace.js+min/mode-html.js+min/theme-dreamweaver.js)" type="text/javascript"></script>
<div id="editor">&lt;html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en">
	&lt;head>
		&lt;style type="text/css" media="screen">
			html, body {
				height: 100%;
			}
		&lt;/style>
	&lt;/head>
&lt;/html></div>
