InDesign/HTML Help

The situation:
I have a lovely newsletter, built in InDesign. It has a top-page spanning masthead (graphic.) It is spilt into two colums of text. It has a bottom-page spanning call to action (graphic.)
I need to export it to HTML and have it hold the formatting.

I've tried exporting to HTML directly from InDesign (fail.)
I've tried exporting a PDF from InDesign and exporting it as HTML from Acrobat (fail.)
I opened Dreamweaver, got the distinct impression my brain was wired incorrectly, and closed the program (fail.)

Does anyone have any idea how to do this? There could be cookies in your future if you com up with the winning solution!

Something like, yea. Problem is, I'm a PrintMonkey. I loves me the paper and the ink. Squish it between plates, I'm yer chick.

This coding thing? *Shudder* I'm so out of my league in this case..

Nah - you're not out of your league - just West Coast Offense vs East Coast Offense.

I'll run it by Meta tonight, and let you know if we have to add more minds to the mix. THanks for the offer!
