Thanks! As suggested, I turned off "Use Tab key to navigate Placeholders" setting and the expected behavior (inserting a tab character) is there now. In my case, this particular file is a ColdFusion script whereby my use of the <# ... #> combination has another purpose. However, one thing that's puzzling is that it never happened before in all the years I've edited that document in TextWrangler, and it has the same setting. I didn't know what it was for, and since it didn't perform the same "navigate Placeholders" behavior, it has always been left "ON". Perhaps that feature never worked in TextWrangler. -- This is the BBEdit Talk public discussion group.
