I think you mean rpmfind.  rpm2html just generates web pages from rpm
archives.  And rpmfind doesn't automatically resolve dependencies for
things, what it does is let you track down and download packages by
searching multiple online archives.  Which makes resolving cascade
dependencies easier but doesn't solve the problem.
