I would like Dreamweaver to show me the opening/closing tag when I select a tag. This functionality is seen in many editors, I know for sure Eclipse has it.
To make things clearer: When I select/highlight a <div> opening tag with my mouse I would like Dreamweaver to select/highlight the </div> closing tag.
My main questions:
I've tried searching the Dreamweaver extensions on the Adobe exchange but couldn't find what I'm looking for.

The br tag inserts a line break (not a paragraph break). This tag has no content, so it is self closing.
Notes. ↑ The full list of valid self-closing tags in HTML5 is: area, base, br, col, embed, hr, img, input, keygen, link, meta, param, source, track, and wbr. However, only <br /> , <hr /> , <wbr /> are allowed through the parser.
The closing tag is made up of the element's symbol preceded by a forward slash and wrapped in angle brackets, like this: </p> The text you want to display on your web page is placed between the opening and closing tags, like this: <p>Text goes between the opening and closing brackets.</p>
Dreamweaver has two different ways of selecting matching tags, depending on whether you're working with HTML or a scripting language.
To select the matching opening and closing tags of an HTML element, click inside the element, and click the Select Parent Tag button in the Coding toolbar. It's the sixth button from the top (I tried to attach a screenshot, but don't yet have sufficient privileges to do so).
To select matching opening and closing curly braces, brackets, or parentheses, click inside the opening or closing symbol, and click the Balance Braces button on the Coding toolbar (it's immediately below Select Parent Tag). Alternatively, use the keyboard shortcut, Ctrl+'/Cmd+'.
