If I didn't want to use/demo apache/mozilla I'd use xdvi with the slide 
class in LaTeX for presentations. But seeing as you want to do stuff
with 
HTML use just HTML. It will be less anoying for the user too. Flicking
back and forward between say a presentation application and mozilla
breaks
the flow of a presentation but if use HTML and mozilla/netscape
hyperlinks
you can go seemlessly to your next slide. Some of the guys might forward 
you their code for the links at the bottom of each slide ie <back and
forward>
buttons.
