R2HTML Package
Introduction
R2HTML is an R package, written by Eric Lecoutre and currently maintained by me. It provides functions and methods to output different R objects to HTML files. It also has a Sweave driver to allow parsing of HTML files containing R code and automatically write the corresponding outputs.
Current released version: 1.59
Download source from CRAN: R2HTML_1.59.tar.gz.

Todo List
- Add method for printing epitools objects, as suggested by Ulrike Grömping.
- Improvement of HTML.matrix(), which currently is generating invalid HTML code.
- Overall improvement of CSS used.
- As pointed out by Kurt Hornik, HTMLcore.R uses global variables and manipulates the user's workspace, which is not a very recommended programming practice on R. A rewrite of the mechanism used to keep track of the .HTMLfile in use is needed, using, as suggested by Hornik, a dynamic variable inside the package.
Documentation
The following RNews article by Eric Lecoutre is a good introduction to the package capabilities:
