I did grab the latest sgml-mode.el, but it seems incompatable with my emacs 21.3.1 on Fedora3. I tried byte-compile and it gave me the error: "Invalid escape character syntax". This is what the regular .el does too when it tries to load when I grab an .html file. I checked the archives and somebody mentions the problem but didn't seem to get a response.
