People,

I have encountered a similar problem.

Currently I use `LaTeX' and `latex2html' to provide user documentation
on a CDROM, browsable html documnets and printable pdf documents.
However, when I include a jpg file in my latex file:

\includegraphics{../whatever.jpg}

and  I run latex2html on the file, the HTML  files always inlude an absolute
path to the jpg images?  I'd prefer to copy them to the HTML folder and that
there be a relative path to the images.

(I will likely automate it by writing a small script)  but if anyone knows of a
means to configure latex2html to do this that'd be great!  Look forward to any
comments.  Ciao,

Chris Forbes
