Hi Roland,
I just fixed this for someone else (leaving
equation-image ALT text complete instead of
shortening it), and it was easy. In the latex2html script, I simply changed
if ( length($alt) > 163 ) {
to
if ( $ALTMAXLENGTH && length($alt) > $ALTMAXLENGTH-2 ) {
where I left $ALTMAXLENGTH undefined (for now), but implemented support for it.
Note, however, that there is a comment in the
code saying that large ALT texts can "upset the
DBM". I am planning to try to fix this when it
bites, but so far I don't think it has. Maybe
AnyDBM_File has evolved forward since that
comment was written? (Fingers crossed...)
This change is in my personal fork of l2h which can be found at
https://github.com/josmithiii/l2hmj
This is a merge of the l2h versions I know about,
plus my own bugfixes, and where I plan to
implement SIMPLE_MATH using MathJax when I have
time to work on it. Codevelopers welcome!

Hello Roland,
I've tried to contact the author referenced in the man page. Since I've got a
mailer daemon, I guess that his mail address has
changed. Can you please forward
it to him or the current maintainer? Below a copy of the message.
Thanks
Sebastian

Hello,
I've got to know that LaTeX2html is capable of creating HTML versions of LaTeX
documents, leaving the mathematical expression
in the alt tag. This is the best
way for visual impaired people to read
scientific/mathematical documents, since
they haven't to deal with the whole LaTeX and can read the mathematical
expressions in LaTeX nonetheless. There are just
two little things which should
be corrected:
1st Do not shorten longer alt tags with "...".
2nd The line breaks of the source get lost, it's hard to read, they should be
copied as well.
Could these features be implemented?
Thanks!
Sebastian
