Dear Tao, I haven't experienced it with LaTeX2HTML, but I used to experience this sort of thing with straight LaTeX. When there are a large number of floats, i.e. things in: \begin{figure} ... \end{figure} or \begin{table} ... \end{table} LaTeX can run out of memory. This is configurable, but my solution at the time was to stop the floats floating, by using the float package, i.e. adding: \usepackage{float} in the preamble of the .tex file, and adding the H option (which means: `Here, absolutely!!!') to each of the floats, e.g. \begin{figure}[H] ... this is stronger than the h! option of LaTeX (which I always found to be ineffective). Anyway, since LaTeX unboxes the tables/figures straight away to put them in the current page, rather than store them up for the `optimum location', it doesn't run out of memory. Anyway, that's the LaTeX solution, and the PDFLaTeX solution. I'm not sure how that will affect things for LaTeX2HTML, but I thought things just didn't float with LaTeX2HTML. So, I'm a bit surprised you had a problem there. Anyway, I guess someone else will have further advice.
