Using htlatex to convert LaTeX to HTML
Referring to the question posted above.
So I used both the script and the htlatex command from the command-prompt in order to convert my LaTeX file to HTML but both are giving me errors.
Error with the htlatex command (without script):
*! Package pdftex.def Error: PDF mode expected, but DVI mode detected! (pdftex.def) If you are using latex', then callpdflatex'. (pdftex.def) Otherwise check and correct the driver options. (pdftex.def) Error recovery by switching to PDF mode.
See the pdftex.def package documentation for explanation.*
Error with the script:
--- warning --- Can't find/open file User_Manual.dvi' --- error --- Can't find/open fileUser_Manual.dvi' --- warning --- Can't find/open file `User_Manual.lg'
Could Not Find F:\Documents and Settings\My Documents\User_Manual_new\User_Manual.idv
Could Not Find F:\Documents and Settings\My Documents\User_Manual_new\User_Manual.lg
Could Not Find F:\Documents and Settings\tbinchisti\My Documents\User_Manual\User_Manual.html
Could Not Find F:\Documents and Settings\My Documents\User_Man ual_new\User_Manual.css
I believe it has something to do with the packages I have but I dont know which ones.
This is my main .tex file:

Try to change your preamble this way:
important is the command
\@ifpackageloaded{tex4ht}{true part ...}{false part ...}. Now we can exclude packages which aren't needed whenhtlatexis run, such asfancyheadersettings, and we can have different settings for packages which causes errors. In this casegraphicxwithpdftexoption,htlatexis running in dvi mode, so we can set it todvips
