Oliver,
Thanks very much. That works fairly well. I amended the regexp just a
little bit to include "sentence-end"s which are normal, just a period
etc. and a space.
The question now is how to have this load when emacs loads. I put it in
.emacs, reloaded, and got an error:
Error in init file: Symbol's value as variable is void: sgml-mode-map
This is because it's not in the path. So how do I get it in the path?
Thanks again for your assist,
ken

= (define-key sgml-mode-map (kbd "M-e") 'my-html-forward-sentence)
