Your regexp is probably off. auto-mode-alist is a regexp for the type of
file. that would be everything after the `.'

i just downloaded the extension and it works great. Try and run M-x
server-start first.

from my emacs file:


;; .emacs.el


;; start emacs server mode
(server-start)

;; append paths to auto-mode-alist
;; check for duplicates with rassoc
(unless (rassoc 'html-mode auto-mode-alist)
  (setq auto-mode-alist
	    (append auto-mode-alist
			    '(("\\.txt\\'" . rst-mode)
                  ("\\.html?\\'" . html-mode)
				  ("\\.rest\\'" . rst-mode)
				  ("\\.md\\'"   . rst-mode)
				  ("^README.*"   . rst-mode)
				  ("\\.\\(pp\\|dpr\\|dpk\\|inc\\)\\'" . pascal-mode)
				  ("\\.fpc\\'" . makefile-gmake-mode)
				  ("\\.cl\\'" . lisp-mode )
				  ("\\.asd\\'"  . lisp-mode)))))

;; hook function to modify html-mode
(defun si::html-mode-hook ()
  "Function to run when new HTML buffer is created."
  (setq sgml-basic-offset 2)
  (message "Editing a HTML file: %s" (buffer-file-name (current-buffer))))


(add-hook 'html-mode-hook 'si::html-mode-hook)

< in my setup.  However, the mode is not selected.  What is wrong with my
< regexp?


the regexp should be looking for *.html$ that means ending with .html.

hope this helps
