Hi,

I want to use bibtex citations in a latex document (easy) and generate
a html document thereof (also easy) as follows (not so easy):

	- write the latex document and use a command \htmlcite
	  for citations

	- in the {dvi,ps} version the \htmlcite should be expanded
	  to some reference like [Tex94] with the corresponding
	  entry in the bibliography. That's plain bibtex.

	- in the html version, which is generated using some latex2html
	  program, the \htmlcite should be expanded to a reference 
	  [Tex94], which is linked to the corresponding bibliography
	  entry. That's plain latex2html.

	- but: the entry in the bibliography should contain the URL of
	  the document and the URL should be sensitive, i.e. a link
	  to "itself" (the original version of the referenced document).


A quick and dirty solution to this is to put the URL in one of the
fields of a document's bibtex entry using a command from html.sty that
expands to a sensitve URL.

A nicer solution would be to define an entry type HyperDoc for .bib files
that contains a field URL: which gets translated into some construct in
the corresponding .bbl file that can be processed appropriatly by 
latex2html. Therefore you'd need a special bibtex style file.

I could imagine I'm not the first to need this. Does anyone know of
a solution? Any help is greatly appreciated (please email to me or post
to comp.text.tex).

Oli
