Hi Ross, 

thanks,

I am using external .png images in generating a provincial curriculum for
both a website and PDF printing. The problem is with the HTML
generation...

the LaTeX looks like:

\includegraphics{cycle.png}

but generated output looks like:

<img src="/root/curriculum/cycle.png">  

(I'm using entities since I don't know how this will render in your email
client)

Just a while ago I found that by changing the setting in "graphicx.perl"
to $COPY_GRAPHICS = 1 the graphic files are copied and the generated HTML
now has the correct local directory path (i.e. src="cycle.png")

However, is this the "right way" to do it, since this just seems to be a
"side effect" of the copying process, but is exactly what I want.

Thanks,

Les Richardson

PS. Is there any work being done by anyone to generate MathML from LaTeX?
I'm not even sure if there is a good "correspondence" between TeX and
MathML. Just a thought.
