Yes, it does do this.
Why does it make a difference to your source ?
Are you using the ifthen package ?

What is your LaTeX2HTML command-line?
If the math.pl extension is not requested, then you
should get an image of $ something\:xxx $ which certainly
happens for me with latex2html v99.1 (beta) .
With math.pl loaded, you should get italiced: something xxx
when -no_math is also used, and if not: something&sp;xxx
(This latter mode is not valid for MathML yet anyway.)
There is perhaps some deeper problem, causing the result
you describe. So please email a URL where I can get an example
of you source that has this problem (preferably cut-down to as
small a size as possible, yet still giving the error).

Again, no problem emerges with latex2html v99.1 (beta)
You can view my results from testing these problems at:

As above, send a URL for some source that behaves badly for you.
Also, tell me exactly which revision-number of the latex2html
script you are using --- you'll find it near the top of the script;
something like:
# $Id: latex2html,v 1.87 1999/03/08 09:32:57 RRM Exp $
That way I should be able to determine whether recent bug-fixes
have fixed tyour problems, or whether there is a configuration
problem at your site.
All the best,
