Hi RBNUBE,
So essentially you want to convert StyledText to HTML?
If this isn't what you're looking for, explain in more detail.
This sounds
interesting and this list has been pretty dead lately. I also deal
a little
with DTP software, though I haven't tried integrating anything I've
written
in RB with Quark or InDesign.

I just realised I'd never responded to this so here goes.
I'm replacing our aging FMP based editorial system with a Valentina/
RB system. In the OS9 days, I had a special OSAX written which would
detect styles in FMP and convert them to Quark tags. Once OSX came
along, I didn't want to have to pay for the OSAX to be updated so I
started using visible tags in FMP - the tags literally surrounded the
text - looks bloody horrible but works well enough. In the meantime
we moved to InDesign which uses an entirely different (and far more
complex) tagging model so...
we wrote a system of converting simple tags into complex tags. Having
done this, I know I can get simple tags (like basic HTML) and convert
them for Quark or InDesign later. Now I want to get back to the tags
being invisible which is where I run into the Stylerun problem. I
should point out that our stories (we're newspaper publishers) also
go on the web so if we start with basic HTML tags the web is already
looked after.
Which leads to my original question of styleruns - I just don't 'get'
them and the LR examples are a bit short in detail.
cheers
