I'm not really an example of the above (too old for wiki?), but the
Sweave() driver in the R2HTML package might be a starting point at least a
lot nearer than going to LaTeX and back (unless MathML is needed). There's
an example of output at

http://spatial.nhh.no/R/etc/capabilities.RHnw.html

which we could move to the wiki if need be.

Another example is on:

http://r-spatial.sourceforge.net/xtra/xtra.RHnw.html

with source:

http://r-spatial.cvs.sourceforge.net/r-spatial/spweb/htdocs/xtra/xtra.RHnw?revision=1.8&view=markup

(NB: I had to edit width= height= with no values out of the output *.html 
for <img ...> to display on IE)
