Eclipse: support for fb-namespace (Facebook) in JSP-files

Question

I got a Java-project related to Facebook with a bunch of JSP-files and I'm supposed to check something and use parts of that in another project. If I open a JSP-file in Eclipse I see plenty of tags in the fb-namespace. All those are underlined as a warning and Eclipse says, e.g. Unknown tag (fb:prompt-permission).

My problem is that I'm totally new to that Facebook-stuff and obviously I'd need the context-sensitive support from Eclipse as far as those fb-tags are concerned. From what I can tell there doesn't seem to be a tag-library.

Can anyone please tell me what I need to do to get the context-sensitive support here?

EDIT: in some way related: HTML: What is `xmlns:fb="http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml"`?

Ignore the warnings. The fb: "namespace" is a java a namespace - it is not a java taglib or anyting that eclipse can resolve. They are evaluated when the page is loaded, so there is not much you can do about it.

See this page for what to include in the xmlns - that's the xhtml namespace part (unrelated to jsp)

Maybe "not much" could help? ;) – sjngm Jan 17 '11 at 11:55
that's what the link I gave is for ;) – Bozho Jan 17 '11 at 12:00
Well, reading that link I'm thinking that it explains how to import custom tags. However, I wanted to get a list of available default tags. And that's what you are saying isn't possible. – sjngm Jan 17 '11 at 12:32
