What is the Indentation standard for HTML (Tab / Two spaces / etc)?

Issue

Many websites, with pre-generated HTML5-compliant boilerplate files, use two spaces. Visual Studio projects, such as ASP.NET MVC 3, default to using a tab.

Will one become the standard way of indenting HTML?

Solution

I don't think there's a W3C specified standard. Since HTML strips out excess whitespace anyway, you should go with whatever you're most comfortable with.
