Well, HTML does not know anything about displaying by itself. It just
says 'start a new paragraph'. How this shows up on your display depends
on your browser. So it's actually neither a LyX nor a HTML 'problem'.

There are \parskip and \parindent macros, probably defined in the .cls
you use. Over here e.g. the defaults \parskip ~ 1ex and \parindent = 0 are
quite common, and that's what you get when you use 'german'. (In LyX you
can switch between the two by Layout->Document->Separation->Skip/Indent,
but that's of no help for you, since you have already chosen 'Indent'...)

If you really, really need to 'fix' your html, you could try to add
indentation by protected spaces (try to replace every <p> by 
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;  - but that's an awful hack.
