[l2h] problem with itemize alignment

[Bob van der Poel]

Thanks, Ross, for the reply.

I understand the problem now. I was assuming that latex2html just
created it's own set of bullets and indents ... of course, it can't do
this ... I'll just have to figure a different way to display my stuff
nicely that works for html and latex.

Thanks.
