I'm liking VS 2010 Beta very much but having an annoying problem while typing HTML code. If I type "<p>" the autocomplete writes "<panel></panel>" There is no way to type "<p>" without resulting "<panel></panel>" I end up having to backspace to delete everything except the "<p" and then hit the ">" It's extremely annoying! Same thing happens when I type "<b>" I get "<beginformajaxcs></beginformajaxcs>" Help!

You really should be using the RC and not the beta.
In the RC (just tested), you can type <p> and it will autocomplete to <p></p>
Furthermore, you can just type p (without any angles) and hit tab and it will autocomplete to <p></p> too.
Same goes for <br /> - just type "br" and hit tab. Handy, right?

You might be running into the issue addressed by this blog post. If so, resetting your VS settings should fix the problem.

Are there any autocomplete options?
