Yes, GrammaTech Ada-ASSURED has this capability and so will a
language-sensitive toolset we plan to release this fall, Ada-Utilities. 
Both are integrated with a web browser and include a scripting language that
provides easy access to the structure of your Ada source code.

We include a demo file called AdaDoc (loosely styled after JavaDoc, if
you're familiar with that), which does something very similar to what you've
described.  Through the scripting language, access to the abstract syntax
tree, and integration with web browsers you can customize it to do what you
want.

Please contact me directly if you'd like more information or pricing.

I believe the guy who created the Ada Lovelace Tutorial has an Ada to HTML
converter.  You can get it from the Lovelace web page at
http://www.adahome.com/Tutorials/Lovelace.

How can Ada-ASSURED achieve this in the presence of overloaded functions,
how would it know to link a given reference to the right defining
occurrence. I thought Ada-ASSURED did not do full visibility analysis ...

Jeff, can you clarify this, if Ada-ASSURED *can* deal with overloading,
it would be very interesting ...
