After some testing I suspect that latex apparently handles incorrectly the section numbers, even though the .dvi output is correct. When processing report.tex, latex writes the section counters in the sec1.ptr and sec2.ptr which can be found here: http://ams.cern.ch/AMS/Basili/temp/sec1.ptr http://ams.cern.ch/AMS/Basili/temp/sec2.ptr These files are used by latex2html Apparently if the \tableofcontents and \listoffigures are moved after the \segment commands then the numbering is correct, as if the mentioned commands increase the section counters. If, instead of using the Makefile which comes with the installation package, I manually run the following commands: latex report.tex latex report.tex dvips -o report.ps report edit sec1.ptr and sec2.ptr to adjust the counters latex2html -various options sec1.tex latex2html -variuos options sec2.tex latex2html -various options sec1.tex latex2html -various options report.tex I do not obtain the correct output. On the contrary, if I modify the sec1.tex and sec2.tex including the following line: \setcounter {lsection}{1} in "htmlonly" part after the \input{sec1.ptr} the output is correct. I don't like the fix since it overwrites the natural location which is defined in the report.tex (parent file), but I hope it may give some hints to the experts to find out where the problem is. I will continue to investigate, Al _______________________________________________ latex2html mailing list latex2html@tug.org http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/latex2html
