just going through the www-talk backlog, this looked interesting --
has anyone tried it on any of the SIPB documents?

Hi, 

this is just to let you know that a new release of the LaTeX2HTML 
translator (v0.3.1) is now available.

Here is a summary of the most important changes:

o Image Recycling 
   Images for equations, tables, figures, special characters etc.,
   generated by the translator are reused during subsequent runs.
   This offers tremendous improvements in speed after an initial 
   successful translation.  

o Cross-References Between (Local or Remote) Documents 
   Cross-references between documents (possibly on
   remote locations) can be established via symbolic labels which are
   independent of the physical filenames.  
   Such cross-references will be maintained with a 
   re-translation even after one or more of the documents have been
   broken into different physical parts or moved.  

o New Options 
   -external_images
      Images are accessed via hypertext links instead of being "inlined".
   -ascii_mode 
      The navigation icons switch to ascii equivalents and images 
      are not "inlined". This option makes documents more portable.

o New Texexpand (contributed by Robert S. Thau <rst@ai.mit.edu>)

o Minor Changes and Bug Fixes 

For more information on how to retrieve, install and use the translator see:
http://cbl.leeds.ac.uk/nikos/tex2html/doc/latex2html/latex2html.html

An *ascii version* of the same documentation is at:
http://cbl.leeds.ac.uk/nikos/tex2html/doc/latex2html.ascii/latex2html.ascii.html

A postscript version of the above is available at:
http://cbl.leeds.ac.uk/nikos/tex2html/doc/latex2html.ps

The full list of changes from v0.2 is at:
http://cbl.leeds.ac.uk/nikos/tex2html/doc/latex2html/subsection3.8.2.html
and the changes from v0.3 at:
http://cbl.leeds.ac.uk/nikos/tex2html/doc/latex2html/subsection3.8.1.html

For the brave ones who got v0.3 last week there is a patch to 
take you to v0.3.1 in:
http://cbl.leeds.ac.uk/nikos/tex2html/previous-versions/patch0.3-to-0.3.1

The new release should become available via anonymous ftp from
ftp.tex.ac.uk in pub/archive/support/latex2html ***soon***.
