Hi,
Does anyone know of a html mode that will auto insert the end tags as I
type. If <html> is typed, it'll add </html> straight away?
It's a simple thing I can live without, but it would be nice.
Cheers,
Chris

You can use nxml-mode to edit xhtml files, see EmacsWiki.
nxml-mode does not do exactly what you are asking for. Instead it keeps
track of what is missing so just position the point where the end tag
should be and the type C-c C-f. And since it is an error that the end
tag is missing nxml-mode can take you to the right position too. It will
also show be a red underline where that is.
Very handy.

I don't know of any auto-insert-end-tags function for any mode, however
nxml-mode (for editing xhtml) does have a key sequence C-cf for
entering closing tags and I would be surprised if the standard or
psgml-mode didn't have something similar.
Tried www.emacswiki.org ?

html-helper-mode does something like this for some tags...

Do you have to turn it on manually? I have html-helper-mode here but it
doesn't do it. I had a look for a more recent version, but there are
loads of pages out there hosting it all with varying versions.
Thanks,
Chris

just some idea
(setq htmlTagWriting nil)
(defun htmlOpeningTag () (interactive)
(insert "<>") (setq htmlStartTagMarkEnd (point-marker))
(backward-char 1) (setq htmlStartTagMarkBeg (point-marker))
(setq htmlTagWriting t)
)
(defun htmlClosingTag () (interactive)
(when htmlTagWriting
(goto-char htmlStartTagMarkEnd)
(insert "</" (buffer-substring htmlStartTagMarkBeg
htmlStartTagMarkEnd) )
(goto-char htmlStartTagMarkEnd)
(setq htmlTagWriting nil)
)
)
(local-set-key "<" 'htmlOpeningTag)
(local-set-key [tab] 'htmlClosingTag)

Will try nxml mode.

Yep. An old linux distribution had a html mode configured to do this,
but it was years ago. At the time it really annoyed me, but now I use
other programming modes which do similar things and htmls the odd one out.

C-c / works here. C-c C-t may be interesting too.
