Since I'm no more active at the Fachschaftsrat Informatik of the University of Saarland anymore, I have transferred all my university time legacy web pages from http://fsinfo.cs.uni-sb.de/~abe/ to this interim host at http://fsinfo.noone.org/~abe/ with only minimal modifications, mainly e-mail addresses.
The pages on this interim host won't be updated anymore until they are moved (and redirected) step by step to their future home somewhere on http://noone.org/
Please also note that my former e-mail address
abe@fsinfo.cs.uni-sb.de is
no more valid. Use abe@deuxchevaux.org
instead.

HTML 3.2 Mode is a major mode for Emacs (developed under GNU Emacs), which fastens up HTML writing by short-cuts for tags, entities and some useful functions like parameter quotifying, adding doctype string, etc. It is designed as replacement for the HTML (1.0) Mode (htmlmode.el) by Marc Andreessen marca@ncsa.uiuc.edu from the NCSA, but both can be used together on one system / Emacs, too.
HTML 3.2 Mode is not a mode for browsing HTML documents. In particular, HTML 3.2 Mode provides no hypertext or World Wide Web capabilities. It is not a syntax checking mode, either (Although it provides some error correcting routines...). It´s also no WYSIWYG mode. (How could it be? It´s an Emacs mode. Hmpf!)
See ftp://ftp.cs.indiana.edu/pub/elisp/w3/ for w3.el, which is an Elisp World Wide Web browser written by William Perry.
Looking for compact HTML Reference? Have a look at The HTML 3.2 Short Reference.
The official
HTML 3.2 recommendation and the SGML definition of HTML 3.2 can be
found at the W3 Consortium.
Thanks to Eva ´Ms. Emacs´ Stopp for beta-testing the HTML 3.2 Mode, for implementing the help on the special characters and for providing HTML 3.2 Mode on all Emacs installations, she administrates.
