What about tth? I've had pretty good luck with that, and when it
works, it produces better-looking math than latex2html.
Also, somewhere on the web I once saw a side-by-side comparison of
latex-to-html converters, but I can't find it now. If I recall, the
output from TeX4ht looked good, but I couldn't get the program to
work. (I didn't try very hard, though.)
