How do I get js2-mode to use spaces instead of tabs in Emacs?

I am using js2-mode to edit Javascript in Emacs, but I can't seem to get it to stop using tabs instead of spaces for indentation. My other modes work fine, just having issues w/ js2.

Solution

  • Do you have

    (setq-default indent-tabs-mode nil)

    in your .emacs? It works fine for me in emacs 23.0.60.1 when I do that. js2-mode uses the standard emacs function indent-to, which respects indent-tabs-mode, to do its indenting.
