A lonely tag like should be considered as a paragraph separator and prevent filling. There's obviously a bug. Please report it with M-x report-emacs-bug. But if you can try it with the above-mentioned CVS code first (I believe the new sgml-mode.el still works in Emacs-21.3) it's even better. Stefan
