Dear Uwe,
I have noticed and reported in lyx-devel this problem with htlatex and
proposed as a work-around to default the temp directory to something
without space (mail reproduced below), what do you think?
It would be very nice for my colleagues if your next version would
support htlatex. Of course, a simple work around is to export to latex
and to call htlatex by hand.

Hello Uwe and Angus,
A colleague of mine have installed Uwe full installer. It seems that the
default miktex installation doesn't contain htlatex. Plus, even if you
install it manually with Miktex, lyx doesn't check for htlatex on a
reconfigure, only tth and hevea AFAIR.
Angus' installer do check for it but there is a problem with it: htlatex
doesn't like path with space apparently. The solution is to change the
temp directory to something without space in "edit->preferences->paths".
May I suggest that you default to C:\temp instead of "C:\Documents and
Settings\...\Local Settings\Temp"? "C:\temp" is standard no?
It might be a good idea to add htlatex support in future version because
I find it better than the competition.
Thanks again for the installers Angus and Uwe,
Abdel.

Is Latex2html part of the Latex total package?
If you mean if it's part of MiKTeX's full installation, then yes.

Latex2html is no longer a supported WinLyx option and that htlatex
will be the default? I saw a post on the developer list about
installing Windows/Latex2html.
LaTeX2html is dead since 2001 its successor is tex4ht, but htis package
has also much problems and bugs.
At the moment we have no default html converter in LyXWin. You can
easily define it by adding a converter LaTeX -> HTML in LyX preferences
with the line "htlatex $$i". Note that you must have installed tex4ht
via MiKTeX's package manager and also note that it won't work due to bug
