Rene,
Yes, I've looked at sphydir. But only for a short while. As far as I can
recall, after looking at about 20 packages, it didn't seem to work or was
very user unfriendly. I currently advised to use the package HTML2IPF.ZIP
and/or use HyperWise/2 (an IBM product specifically targeted for this area,
although it cannot handle HTML).
