I tried to follow the link but was told that my client lacks permission

| Are you saying that a TeX widget could be developed from the current
| TeX source code? As I understand it, this would not be too easy, but
| not _that_ hard either, as long one does not try to implement it as an
| editable widget.
|
| No. I'm saying that something can be ginned up to produce hypertext
| documents from dvi files (with appropriate \special's). That would
| keep the TeX/LaTeX community happy until something better could be
| done.
|
| Latex2html already has such a feature. see
