Hi,
I'm pretty new to Vim, but went through several tutorials, quick 
references, a number of help pages, and briefly through the Vim book. I 
also hear announcements about Vim7's enhanced built-in support for HTML 
editing. I even tried to play a bit with the auto-completion (got some 
'completion lists' popping up after opening a PHP/HTML file...).

But where do I go from here to learn efficient HTML editing with Vim, 
having expert around to receive guidance from?
Especially when it comes to Vim7, all tutorials I have seen seem terribly 
outdated.
For example, here are a few simple things I need to do all the time:
 - Insert tags around a selected block of text (e.g. <b>...</b>)
 - get vim to automatically close/complete the innermost previously opened 
tag.
 - delete both the start and end tag with a minimum number of keystrokes.
I could find half a dozen of ways to do the above, and even more posts 
about ways to semi-automate this.
But those most common operations ought to be well supported in Vim7 I 
imagine, is there a good default way to accomplish them?
Other things I don't know how to find is: how do I make sure that VIM 
finds the CSS associated with the document I am editing (to help with 
auto-completion)?
What are other tricks I should know for HTML-style document editing, and 
where can I learn them?
Are there any targeted tutorials I should look into?
Is there an obvious resource I should use?

Your guidance is very much appreciated,
Ivan
