HTML conversion is okay (it doesn't look exactly like the notebook,
but whatever). MathML + HTML is screwed up by Mathematica with certain
kinds of (layouts of/constructions of) notebooks.

For instance, I have a notebook that was renedered entirely with
notebook write calls from another notebook. The notebook write
XHTML+MathML rendering is garbage (even though the notebook as
rendered in Mathematica is beautiful).

Another for instance includes my two recent posts on MathML.
