# [l2h] Math in section title

I quickly browsed the archives and found some related issues addressed,
but none that I saw were quite like my problem.

I have a simple equation in a section title.  I am using amsmath and L2H
2002-2 (1.70).  The LaTeX output is perfect, i.e. the equation is
included everywhere it should be (TOC, section heading, etc.) and scales
correctly.

As you know, the main html page produced by LaTeX2HTML (index.html)
contains a copy of the TOC, even if there is no \tableofcontents command
in the LaTeX source.  In this TOC "copy" the equation displays fine, but
the real TOC (i.e. the separate html page accessed from the contents
navigation button when a \tableofcontents is included) does not contain
the equation.  The html source for this page is completely missing the
<img> tag for the equation.  I guess I could copy and paste the tag from
index.html, but I thought I would ask if anyone knew of a fix since that
seems like a very inefficient workaround, especially if I wish to
include math in many more section titles.

There is a separate issue of getting the image to scale correctly in the
heading of the actual html file for that particular section.  I've tried
\protect to no avail.  Any suggestions for both or either of these
issues will be appreciated.
