[tex4ht] Missing Colors when generating HTML

Tue Dec 28 17:28:15 CET 2010

Hello Radhakrishnan,

thank you for the fast response!
Your quick fix works with simple \color commands.
I found out, that alternatively the command \textcolor also works.

Though i still have a problem with the coloring, as i also use
the lstlisting command to show various code listings with color
highlighting. Unfortunately the listings package seems not to
work with color support too.

For example listings with the following configuration, are still
shown in black&white instead of green on black:
\lstdefinelanguage{Test}
{
  basicstyle=\ttfamily\color{green},
  backgroundcolor=\color{black},
}

Maybe you have a solution for this too.

Regards,

Kevin
