I posted this on the comp.test.tex then I found about this maling list, so I am posting this here. May be I can get help.

Please let me know if you need any more information about this.


Hello

After spending 2 days of configuration blues on windows to get latex2html to finally generate images, I have one final problem to solve to get the whole thing working.

The problem now is the following:

When latex2html runs and generate the html document, for every image (it converts each equation and symbol to an image), it includes in the image itself the following

<tex2html_commet_mark>NUMBER followed by a number which seems to be a counter as it increases for each image.

So all the equations look like something as follows

                 <tex2html_commet_mark> 99                 3 x + y
                 <tex2html_commet_mark> 100               2 x etc....

I was able to get rid of the "tex2html_commet_mark" part, but the counters I can get rid of (the numbers above 99,100, etc...) , so now the equations look like

                 < > 99                 3 x + y
                 < > 100               2 x etc....

I edited the file latex2html.pin and replaced the line

$comment_mark = '<tex2html_comment_mark>';

with this:

$comment_mark = '<> ';

Clearly this is half a fix, as I need to remove all of this ALT stuff from the images themselves.

The problem is that those $comment_mark are part of the image itself, and are also in the ALT= tag in the html as well. So, the I need to find out how to remove them before the images themselves are processed.

Any one else faced this problem with latex2html?

I am using

C:\LATEX\latex2html-2008>latex2html -v
$* is no longer supported at latex2html.bat line 10607.
This is LaTeX2HTML Version 2008 (1.71)
by Nikos Drakos, Computer Based Learning Unit, University of Leeds.

I know very little perl to attempt to hack the latex2html.bin more than the above. I searched google.

thank you for any hints.
