Hi,

I was testing version 98.1p1 that I recently downloaded on a simple file that
I had problems with an earlier version of latex2html, and with this version,
the previous problem is no longer there, but I get an error from gdbm, as
follows:

 *** processing declarations ***
OPENING /a/triumph/extra6/ks15/tmp/start.tex 
Cannot create directory start: File exists

Tracing the problem, I find that it occurs when the system is creatingf 
the .css file, and I traced the problem to the following line in the
latex2html code in the style_sheet subroutine:

        while (($env,$style) = each %env_style) {

I assume this is because the file %env_style does not exist at the point
when this line is executed. Is this because I have not set things up 
correctly? Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

Here is the latex file that first caused the problem, although other latex
files also seem to cause the problem, so I suspect I am not setting things
up right. Any suggestions about what I might be doing wrong (I am running
the program on a version of Redhat Linux (I don't know the exact version;
I did not set the system up), on a Pentium II PC box. Please do contact
me if you require more specific information.
