Yes, I use TTH - http://hutchinson.belmont.ma.us/tth/  - instead. Though
it's a long time since I used latex2html(1), I remember that it writes
many HTML files by default, each containing a section or sub-section of
the original document. I had to use several switches to make it work
almost sensibly.

The TTH source is a Lex program which the author does not make
available, only the generated C. It writes just one HTML file for every
LaTeX file input.
