I do love to read, but I do NOT have the patience to read through hundreds of posts in this thread to find an answer. So parden me for coming to the end of the thread and posting my question and thoughts.

I installed ActiveStatePerl 5.8.8 and all the necessary (according to his website) addons to run mobi2html on my Win XP PC.

I used mobidedrm to de-DRM a MobiPocket file originally purchased for MobiPocket on the Palm.

When I go into a DOS Prompt and run mobihtml to convert this file I get a nice unpack folder filled with GIF files and one html file that contains only the following:

<html><head></head><body></body></html>

This is not much good as far as I can see if that is all it does. The image files are great, but no usable html is unpacked.

Has anyone ever gotten this script to work? If so, how...
