Yes, it works now. Thanks.

This clears things up.

Bummer.

I have been planning to go through the entire manual. I hope to get to
that this summer.

The timestamps are fixed, but there are two new issues. First, I get
weird HTML in the postamble for the email address.

With org-mode release_7.5.43.gdf38 I get the following when I export:

  <p class="email"><a href="mailto:<a
href="mailto:address@hidden";>address@hidden</a>">&lt;<a
href="mailto:address@hidden";>address@hidden</a>&gt;</p>

I used to get (with 7.4):

  <p class="author"> Author: Scott P. Randby
  <a href="mailto:address@hidden";>&lt;address@hidden&gt;</a>
  </p>

I think the code for the email line should be:

  <p class="email"><a
href="mailto:address@hidden";>&lt;address@hidden&gt;</a></p>

The second issue is that the following now appears at the end of my HTML
documents:

  <br/><br/><hr/><p><!-- hhmts start --> <!-- hhmts end --></p>

This appears to have something to do with the
org-export-html-html-helper-timestamp variable. If I change that
variable to an empty string, then I don't get the code (of course).
However, it seems to me this code shouldn't appear unless the user wants
it to appear. It didn't appear when I was using version 7.4.
