Build Identifier: M20090917-0800 Opened an XML file in the Eclipse Workbench using the XML editor and accessed the XML preference setting page. Changed the 'Encoding' field from "UTF-8" to "US ASCII" and pressed OK to save it. Change in the Encoding value doesn't get reflected in the Active editor whereas it is getting considered only for the new file creations. New file -> XML or HTML...etc. It would be good to have a listener which asks User confirmation to update preference changes in the Active editors. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Open an HTML / XML file using appropriate editor. 2.Right click in the Editor -> Open Preference page 3.Change Encoding value in the Preferences and Press OK. 4.Active editor will still show only the old value. 5. e.g. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
