Open website from within eclipse's internal browser? - linux

Could anyone help me with opening web pages from within Eclipse's internal (embedded) browser? I'm running Linux (tiling window manager) and Eclipse-3.7.2 side-by-side with browser and it's a pain.
I want this to be able to comfortably read requirements from my code and at the same time code. This could be a question for superuser but it's Eclipse related so I guess I have better shot for an answer here.
Thanks in advance.
edit: I'm running gentoo linux and swt-3.7.1 with compiled in xulrunner support.
edit2: adding picture of gui menu in response to answer bellow.

Open Window / Customize Perspective... menu then on "Command Group Availability" tab find "Web Browser" entry and make sure it is checked. Then confirm that "Web Browser" is also checked on "Tool Bar Visibility" tab. Then you should see a web browser globe icon on toolbar that would open a web browser editor in the IDE.
Though you'll have to change settings on your picture to use "Internal Web Browser" then it will be opened as an Eclipse editor.

I know the question is old but I just had the same problem and was able to find the soloution.
The internal browser of SWT is using the webkitgtk browser engine. Because you're running gentoo I suppose you currently have net-libs/webkit-gtk:3 installed which is incompatible with SWT. But this is no problem because you can install the compatible net-libs/webkit-gtk:2 in a new slot.
Just install it like this:
emerge net-libs/webkit-gtk:2
After the package is installed the internal webbrowser is working again (for me)

On Ubuntu 13.04 using Eclipse it automagically worked, I was not sure which webkit I was missing, so I installed all that seemed relevant, if someone has pinpointed which it is, please comment,

Cant find the background apps tray in Pop!_OS

All apps like "Steam", "Slack", "Anydesk" and etc. They were all displaying in black/white in a tray at my panel.
The update for POP!_OS was pending for a few weeks, so "what the heck, let's do this!"...
It was an instant regret when the PC rebooted... all GNOME extensions were GONE! I was not expecting this to happen... =/
I managed to remember most of the extensions I had running before, so I installed them all.
Didn't take me too much time to realize that the background apps are not showing anymore. They don't show in the dash, nor the panel or anywhere else besides the System Monitor.
The gnome extension Dash to Panel is active, as it may be related I'm posting this screen shot showing that all possible areas are "Visible".
How can I display the background apps again?
Well, silly me...
I really don't know the reason for it, but seems like the package https://github.com/ubuntu/gnome-shell-extension-appindicator was uninstalled during the update.
So the solution for the issue was:
Installing this extension: $sudo apt install gnome-shell-extension-appindicator
Enabling it in the gnome extensions manager: Ubuntu Appindicators
I hope it helps someone! =)

Eclipse Marketplace Not Showing All Search Results

I'm having an issue with the eclipse marketplace where doing a search doesn't show all available results. Searching for "java" I get a list of about 10 available plugins and at the bottom it says "156 matches. Browse for more solutions."
The problem is, when I click to browse more solutions I just get a blank emacs window and I can't seem to get to any of the other search results so I'm stuck with only the first 10 options.
How can I get it to show the rest of the results?
I'm running eclipse on a RedHat 6 Linux server and using a Cygwin XWindow to open it on my PC. My eclipse version info is below.
When clicking on that link, Eclipse should be opening your web browser. Somehow, on your system, Eclipse thinks that Emacs is your web browser. You can fix this on your system set-up, or override that system settings in Eclipse for Eclipse only.
Set Default Browser
Open Preferences
Navigate to General -> Web Browser
Customize your settings
Visit Marketplace Directly
An alternative is to browse to the Eclipse Marketplace directly in your web browser:

Error with installing svnX (TortoiseSVN alternatives for mac)

I'm trying to install svnX 1.3.4dmg for iMac. It says “svnX” can’t be opened because it is from an unidentified developer. how can I do that. please help me with this.
These instructions are for OSX Yosemite, and may not apply to all versions of OSX. Let me know if you need directions for another version. Also, a warning to anyone attempting to do this with potentially unsafe software, please be sure the program you are installing is legitimate and safe prior to running the installer. See the article linked below for more information about this topic.
To override your security settings and open the app anyway:
1. In the Finder, locate the app you want to open.
2. Don’t use Launchpad to do this. Launchpad doesn’t allow you to access the shortcut menu.
3. Press the Control key, then click the app icon, then choose Open from the shortcut menu.
4. Click Open.
The app should then be saved as an exception to your security settings, and you can open it in the future by double-clicking it just as you can any registered app.

Target output browser for webapplication in monodevelop

It must be a trivial option hidden somewhere.
I have a web application in monodevelop. When I run it (f5) it starts in chromium (chrome for linux). I want to change this to firefox or to nothing (don't start a browser, I can reload the page myself).
Can anyone tell me how I change this?
Thanks!
MonoDevelop uses your default browser, according to your GNOME preferences (on Linux). It's not possible to change this without than changing your default or modifying the MD source code.

Aptana 3.0.3 Web Browser Crashes when loading localhost site (repeatable)?

I was programming a web site and tried to load it into the embedded web browser within Aptana 3.0.3, but each time I loaded it, the program crashes/closes and give the standard "let Apple know about this". I am running iMac OSX 10.7 (Lion).
Tried that... when I do "Check for Updates" I get "No updates found" but with the following error:
No repository found at http://quantum.sourceforge.net/update-site/plugins/.
There doesn't seem to be any kind of page to resolve this issue.
I can't find 3.0.4 anywhere to download either.
Please advise!
Update to 3.0.4. The issue should be fixed there.
