Hi,
I found a bug in the \HTMLcode command. I was trying to do the following:
\HTMLcode{SUP}{0}
to generate a superscript 0. In the process, I discovered that any
\HTMLcode{xxxx}{0} command fails. The fix is fairly easy, involving a
change to the do_cmd_HTMLcode routine in latex2html. Change the line
near the end of the subroutine that reads
} elsif ($value) {
to
} elsif (length($value)) {
This is a classic PERL pitfall - testing if $value is true instead of
testing if $value is a non-empty string.
