What html-mode are you using? I assume you are using html-helper-mode. This mode only seems to indent lists, selects and tables. Modes which handle the indentation of other elements properly are psgml-mode and nxml-mode, maybe you should try one of those. They are not yet part of emacs, though. Regards, Anselm
