That depends upon your tramp-default-method. Tramp will use that if
none is specified in the file line. In your case with ssh as the
default you need to specify /ftp:...
Haines> I do wish to use ssh, and so tried:
Haines> C-x C-f /ftp:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/html
Oh, you do wish to use ssh, so no you don't need /ftp:.
Haines> and emacs simply wants again to create the directory.
As to why it doesn't work correctly I'd suggest checking you buffers
for various :-
* *tramp/scp [EMAIL PROTECTED] 347 Fundamental
* *tramp/scp [EMAIL PROTECTED] 20 Fundamental
to see if tramp has actually tried to setup a connection.
