>From what I've seen, you are using @ifhtml incorrectly: it is not for
injecting raw HTML into the output.  For the latter, use the
@address@hidden html construct, exactly like you would use @address@hidden tex
for raw TeX.

@ifhtml is for the part of the Texinfo source that should only be
processed when producing HTML output (under the --html command-line
switch).  But the text inside @address@hidden ifhtml is still subject to
processing and conversion, because makeinfo assumes it's a Texinfo
source, not HTML.

By contrast, what you put inside @address@hidden html is copied verbatim
into the output.

If this is somehow unclear from the Texinfo manual, please tell which
parts of the manual confused you.  AFAICS, it explains what I tell
above.

If I misunderstand the problem, please post a short Texinfo fragment
and the output generated by makeinfo from that fragment, and point out
which parts you think are generated incorrectly.
