You can check out the features over at (http://www.eclipse.org/atf/features/index.php). I'm using an old version of the framework myself (because I have to make it work with certain antiquated Eclipse plugins) so I cannot compare it directly to NetBeans, but it has a built-in Rhino engine for much the same purposes. You also get a Mozilla instance embedded directly into the IDE with full script debugging, DOM inspector and httprequest monitoring. With these frameworks in direct competition, surely we're heading for a golden age of javascript authoring. But I'm gonna stick to Eclipse myself, in the belief that they will be first to pick up on JS2.0 support (as soon as Rhino can handle it).
