I don't have a good answer (but if you do find good solution, let me know!),
but if you're willing to use a custom font (which basically means a
font that advertises itself as a ISO-LATIN1 font, but has totally different
glyphs at 128-255 characer codes), there is a solution - and I understand
that some browsers allow downloadable fonts.

The most popular Romanized Sanskrit font are fonts in the Classical
Sanskrit Extended (CS/CSX) encoding, fonts like CSUtopia, Washington
Roman Indic (WNRIX, etc). These have all the required diacritics needed
for Sanskrit. You can find these fonts if you do a Web  search,
or you can get them from my font archive, available at the ITRANS link
at my web  page.

[Of course, these fonts have nothing to do with LaTeX or latex2html...]
