XHTML Autocomplete in TextMate

A handy (perhaps vital?) tip for working with XHTML documents in TextMate. In order to get XHTML self-closing tags to work (ie: <image /> or <br />) in documents with an XHTML doctype, do this:

1. Go to Preferences -> Advanced -> Shell Variables
2. Create a new variable, named TM_XHTML with the value ‘ /’ (no quotes)
3. Bob’s your uncle.

(Thanks to Michael Larocque for that)
