p tags and indenting in Html Mode

[Tyler Smith]

Hi,

Html mode recognizes that <p> tags don't need to be closed, so
successive tags get indented to the same level. But when an unclosed <p>
tag is followed by a heading (e.g., <h3>), the heading gets indented as
if it were within the previous <p>, as do all subsequent tags that
aren't <p> tags. In other words, the heading is indented further than
the <p> tags that were there before. How can I get html mode to keep the
indentation at the same level? I put a small example below to clarify.

I've tried google and the mail archives, but searching on html mode, p
tags, indenting etc. gave me lots of apparently unrelated info. Thanks
for your help!

Windows Vista
(I know this is not the newest version of Emacs, but until I get time to
get my work machine switched over to Debian I'm stuck with this)

what I get now:

      <h3 id="catalog">Catalog Description</h3>

      <p>Structure and function of vascular plants.

        <h3 id="location">When and Where</h3>

        <dl>
          <dt>Lectures, Moore 123:</dt><dd>Tuesday 9:30</dd>
          <dt>Labs, Moore 202:</dt><dd>Tuesday 12:30</dd>
        </dl>

        <h3 id="textbook">Textbooks</h3>

      <p>blah blah blah

What I'd like:

      <h3 id="catalog">Catalog Description</h3>

      <p>Structure and function of vascular plants.

      <h3 id="location">When and Where</h3>

      <dl>
        <dt>Lectures, Moore 123:</dt><dd>Tuesday 9:30</dd>
        <dt>Labs, Moore 202:</dt><dd>Tuesday 12:30</dd>
      </dl>

      <h3 id="textbook">Textbooks</h3>

      <p>blah blah blah
