Hi, 

first a silly question, where are the patches located ?

it seems as if latex2html processes the content of an index command
very differently then latex, instead of treating them verbatim 
they are normally processed so that for instance a % sign in
an index leads to ignoring the rest of the input line ?

an example

\documentclass{book}

\begin{document}

what happens with an index\index{%} if it contains
special characters like \%, \$, etc. 
\LaTeX\ handles them correctly, latex2html doesn't. 

\end{document}

Produces:

Translating ...
0/1:top of error: for error.html

 *** translating preamble ***
...
 *** preamble done ***
;...
Cannot find matching bracket for 5.;.

*** no brace for \index , before:
\documentclass{book}
*** using "
\documentclass" as the argument instead; is this correct?  ***

..

*** no brace for \index , before:
{<tex2html_comment_mark>
*** using "<" as the argument instead; is this correct?  ***

....


best regards,
Ben Polman
