Well I took your advice and updated my geany to 0.15. Works great now! Thank you all for your replies.

Thank you for the reply. So it works for other peaople then...
I guess you are talking about http://citizen.ovh.org/stuff/snippets.conf?
Yes I am.
The preferred path is ~/.geany/snippets.conf
Yup I put it there
I don't know. I hope it's not a bug, at least it works fine here. Are you sure you tested it with an HTML file and Geany actually treated this file as a HTML file (check the statusbar)? The completions in this snippets.conf are only working for HTML files, if they should be available on all filetypes, move them into the "Default" section.
Yes I am sure that its a HTML file, and the statusbar says it as well. Also the snippets in the default section don't work either, none of them do. Maybe I should try install a more recent version of geany? I have 0.12
Yes. 0.12 is old, buggy (compared to newer versions) and, erm, old :). As Ross mentioned, 0.12 was looking for a file "autocomple.conf". No idea why it still doesn't work for you after renaming the file but I strongly suggest to update your Geany version if possible.
