\itemsep is not interpreted by LaTeX2HTML, since there is nothing
corresponding to it in the HTML specs.
The simplest way to get extra space after an \item
is to leave a blank line after the item's contents,
before the next \item.
LaTeX will ignore this extra space, but LaTeX2HTML
interprets it as a new paragraph, so puts an unclosed <P> tag.
(This remains valid HTML.)

One way is to simply apply the styles that you want to the contents
of your \item s, using explicit \textit commands, or pseudo-environments,
such as {\Large ........ }.
An alternative way would be to use CSS styles.
You can edit the stylesheet that LaTeX2HTML creates when you first
process a job.
HTML is not a rich language for delicate page-layouts.
You must either combine it with CSS, or try a different format, such as PDF.
Hope this helps,
