I don't know about HTML5, so I will look into that. But my concern is more about how to design the system. Let me explain.
LaTeX is quite a formidable system nowadays, with a well-developed markup language optimized for mathematics and technical writing, as well as a compiler which does advanced typesetting (for PDF output, that is). Because of the way the system is organized, there are thousands of packages available for LaTeX which essentially extend the markup language and provide new functionality to the compiler to produce diagrams, for example, or certain alternate PDF formats, etc. The amount of work done in the LaTeX domain in terms of development is quite amazing.
In view of this, is there a way of extending LaTeX in such a way that all this functionality ports over to the creation of more active documents/webpages?
