I second the motion on this subject.

I have been looking for this software for sometime now. I did get a
copy of the MIF2HTML at one time but this didn't address the following:

   generation of a hierarchy of interlinked HTML files 
     (Chapter, Section, etc.) 
   links with external HTML documents, 
   generation of tables of contents and indices, 
   cross-references 
   inclusion of pictures. 

Thanks in advance for the info.
