You don't :-(.
Well, not easily, anyway. The next release of Texinfo will support HTML
generation from a Texinfo source, so one alternative is to wait ;-).
Another alternative is to install Perl, get hold of the `texi2html' Perl
script, and use that. (That's how the HTML versions of GNU docs are
generated on DJ's server and for the v2gnu/*d.zip files.)
Yet another way is to download the DJGPP FAQ sources (v2/faq211s.zip)
and use the tools in there. (That's how the HTML version of the FAQ is
created.)
Both `texi2html' and the tools developed for the FAQ have advantages and
disadvantages. The former is probably the better alternative, unless the
Texinfo sources use macros or the @multitable directive (which `texi2html'
doesn't support).
