Make delimitMate and xmledit work together

Question

I have both delimitMate.vim and xmledit.vim installed.

When I type a tag and > to close, an extra trailing > is entered.

What I type:

<p>

What I see:

<p></p>>

delimitMate completes < to <> placing the cursor in between. Typing p creates the tag and typing > makes xmledit autocomplete the closing tag and place the cursor in between. However, an extra > is appended.

How can I prevent the extra > from appearing after the closing tag?

Answer 1

XMLedit heavliy depended on the closing > to be manually typed. This is fixed here

Answer 2

The xmledit plugin has a few options, so if you'd really want you could disable it's completion.

Put this in your .vimrc:

let xml_tag_completion_map = "<C-l>"

Now pressing > will no longer put two closing characters, and you can still trigger the (awesome!) nest-tag functionality by pressing Ctrl+L after the > character.
