Tnx, Harald,
After taking out the html commenting syntax, it's still not working for
me. I found that I'm getting this error message (the "Fontifying..."
message in the minibuffer must have been hiding it before):
File local-variables error: (error "Local variables entry is missing the
prefix")
So what does this error message mean and/or what should I do about it?
