I've also written an HTML-izer specifically for FAQs and use it for two
myself - more info at http://www.scot.demon.co.uk/q-html.html

It's shareware but I'd give a free copy to anyone wanting to use it for
setting up a FAQ archive. The tool will also split large FAQs into one
html file per answer, cross referenced back to the contents - see
http://www.scot.demon.co.uk/scotfaq/contents.html for sample output.
