I'm working with HTML files, but they are being set up to be includes, so they don't have a DOCTYPE or a <html></html> combination. How do I tell BBEdit to recognize them as being HTML anyway, so that the pop-up menu will contain the "Insert Tag..." menu in it when I right-click in the document?

Quick solution: add <div> tags around the include while you're working on it, then get rid of them when you're done. You'll also need to set the document language to HTML. BBEdit will stop complaining about the lack of a parent tag and you can use the Tag Maker or what have you.

I use a script I wrote to set my document language with the keyboard:

You can speed up the process with a script, like the Clankwerks tag-o- matic scripts:

These don't work out of the box in BBEdit 8, as I recall. I use the cut tags script all the time, so if you end up using this or needing it, I can post my modified version.
