How to change vim auto-indent behavior?

Question

By default vim aligns lines inside LI tags on the same position as the position of LI tag, but I want the contents of LI to have deeper indentation.

Current behaviour:

<LI>
first line
second line

I want:

<UL>
    first line
    second line

Is this possible?

Answer 1

You can try this html plugin.

You can then customize it to your needs. As the plugin page says, you can specify which html tags get indented more:

You can add further tags with 

  :let g:html_indent_inctags = "html,body,head,tbody" 

You can remove tags with 

  :let g:html_indent_autotags = "th,td,tr,tfoot,thead" 

so in your case simply:

:let g:html_indent_inctags = "li,ul";
