[Richard Stallman]

Would someone please DTRT and ack?  If it is a trivial bug, let's fix it for
the release.

Subject: html mode doesn't prompt for all tag attribute values

The actions triggering the bug are:
1. Open a html file.  Notice we are in html-mode now.
2. Hit C-c C-t to create a new html tag.  Enter ``a'' to create an  
anchor tag.
3. We are now prompted for an attribute.  Enter ``name'' to create  
named anchor.
4. Notice we are not prompted for a value for the ``name''  
attribute.  Emacs has
simply inserted the name attribute with an empty value, and prompted  
for another
attribute.

I don't see any good reason Emacs doesn't prompt for a value for the  
``name''
attribute.  Obviously, if I want a name attribute I also want a value  
for it.
