In Notepad++ if you double click a word to highlight it, all the occurrences of the word in the file are also highlighted, a feature that is quite handy for finding where variables are declared/used.
Does the eclipse editor have this functionality? :) If so, how can I turn it on?

To disable the text selection when the user double clicks on the HTML element, you can use the user-select property and set its value to none in CSS.
In most cases, a double-click is with the left mouse button and is used to open or execute a file, folder, or software program. For example, programs and files in Microsoft Windows are opened by double-clicking the icon. To open your Internet browser, you would double-click the browser icon shortcut.
Typically, a single click initiates a user interface action and a double-click extends the action. For example, one click usually selects an item, and a double-click edits the selected item.
The most common culprit of the double-clicking issue is the double-click speed setting for your mouse is set too low. When set very low, clicking at two different times may be interpreted as a double-click instead.
For the Eclipse Java editor, you can go to Window->Preferences in the menu, then Java->Editor->Mark Occurrences in the options tree and check off anything you want highlighted in this way.
Note that the editor understands Java scoping rules, so if you have 2 local variables with the same name in two different functions, it will only highlight within the current function.
