[tex4ht] Again biblatex

[David Denton]

Dear List members,

This incompatibility is causing big problems for me. I tried
following Christian's advice and going back to Biblatex 1.5a, but
can't get that working. I think I need Biber 0.9.3 to work with
that, is that correct?

My copy of biblatex.4ht is dated 2010-12-18-17:25.

The problem I have been having with Biblatex 1.6 is more severe
that what Christian describes in that as soon as there is any
\cite command, whether in a footnote or not, it does not compile.

Any advice? Thanks,

David
