I created foo.tex following your message

\documentclass{powerdot}

\title{An Example}
\author{First Author\and Second Author}

\begin{document}

\maketitle

\begin{slide}{Some Title}
Some  body
\end{slide}

\begin{slide}{Another Title}
Another  body
\end{slide}

\end{document}


and ran

htlatex foo "xhtml"

and it still complains

! Package xkeyval Error: `p' undefined in families `['.


Even in batch mode it stumbles at \maketitle and \begin{slide}

I have xkeyval 2.5e which is the latest


Meanwhile "latex foo.tex" works properly

Do you need a log file?

htlatex works perfectly on {article} class documents on my Mac(s)
