Date: Sat, 01 Apr 2017 20:26:42 +0800

If the user wants numerical timezones in his timestamps, there is no
other way than hardwiring them in:

(add-hook 'before-save-hook 'time-stamp)
(eval-after-load 'sgml-mode
  '(add-hook
    'html-mode-hook
    (lambda ()
      (set (make-local-variable 'time-stamp-pattern)
	   "-8/>Last modified: %Y-%02m-%02d %02H:%02M:%02S \\+0800")
      (set (make-local-variable 'time-stamp-time-zone) "Asia/Taipei"))))

P.S., it is not clear how one can make
(add-hook 'before-save-hook 'time-stamp)
html-mode specific too.

Use the LOCAL argument to `add-hook'

I mean how to make emacs only look for and change time stamps in HTML files.

Right. Here's what I mean:

    (eval-after-load 'sgml-mode
      '(add-hook
        'html-mode-hook
        (lambda ()
          (set (make-local-variable 'time-stamp-pattern)
               "-8/>Last modified: %Y-%02m-%02d %02H:%02M:%02S \\+0800")
          (set (make-local-variable 'time-stamp-time-zone) "Asia/Taipei")
          (add-hook 'before-save-hook 'time-stamp nil t) ;; <- Here
          )))

It will add `time-stamp' to `before-save-hook' buffer-locally in all
`html-mode' buffers.

Thanks! I now use

;; html-helper-mode is no longer in Debian. Grandfather its timestamps:
(eval-after-load 'sgml-mode
  '(add-hook
    'html-mode-hook
    (lambda ()
      (set (make-local-variable 'time-stamp-line-limit) -8)
      (set (make-local-variable 'time-stamp-format)
	   "%:y-%02m-%02d %02H:%02M:%02S +0800") ;alas must hardwire to get '+0800'
      (set (make-local-variable 'time-stamp-start)
	   "<!-- hhmts start -->Last modified:[ \t\n]+")
      (set (make-local-variable 'time-stamp-end) "[ \t\n]*<!-- hhmts end -->")
      (set (make-local-variable 'time-stamp-time-zone) "Asia/Taipei")
      (add-hook 'before-save-hook 'time-stamp nil t)
      )))

Since this problem seems to be solved, I am closing the bug report.
