Importing web directory using eclipse plugin

Good Evening, Say I have an HTML project hosted here [1], and I wish to begin a fresh authoring project, therefore I need to begin working with existing code within the project structure. Does the Eclipse plugin allow me to fetch this code and begin working on it as an XML project? I haven't been able to get this functionality from the plugin, hopefully I am missing something. The other option, is to download it, but when I do this, then manually import it, I am not able to render the HTML through the eclipse browser. Thanks for any information to help me out.

Dear Lewis, To open a .htm file directly from the web server in oXygen XML editor on the Eclipse plugin please follow the steps below: - Go to Eclipse Preferences and in the File Associations page locate the *.htm entry - Edit this to add the Oxygen XML Editor editor and mark it as Default (use the Add and Default buttons next to the Associated Editors area) - Use the File->Open URL action and enter the URL you want to open, for example http://www.sbsa.gov.uk/web_books/non_domestic/non_domestic.htm - You can use F3 on a file name to open that corresponding file In any case, as that is not a WebDAV server you will not be able to save your changes to those files. So, a better approach is to download everything locally and then put those files in a project inside the Eclipse workspace.

George, Thanks for your comments. I'm moving the project to a WebDAV server and will be using svn to commit changes to the project. The information you've provided helps me out a great deal.
