I have table generated by a program which is a little large. But no problem
compiling it with lualatex. When using tex4ht using same commands I always
use, now it gives this error which I never saw before

Command used is 

make4ht -ulm default -a debug -c ./nma_mathjax.cfg main.tex
"mathjax,htm,fn-in"

Output is 
--------------------
....

(/usr/local/texlive/2022/texmf-dist/tex/generic/tex4ht/html5.4ht))

! LaTeX mark Error: Infinite shrinkage found in 'page'.

For immediate help type H <return>.
 ...                                              
                                                  
l.1125 \end{table}
                
? H

This is a coding error.

The mark region 'page' contains some infinite negative glue allowing it to
shrink to an arbitrary size. This makes it impossible to split the region
apart to get at its marks. They are lost.

? 
------------------

Since the .tex file is large and my nma_mathjax.cfg is large and needed, I put
these two files in the folder at the link at the bottom. I also put the .pdf
compiled by lualatex with no problem.

The files are self contained and have minimal packages needed to reproduce the
problem.

Simply download the .tex and .cfg files to one folder and issue the above
command to see the problem.

I am using TL 2022 on Linux

>which make4ht
/usr/local/texlive/2022/bin/x86_64-linux/make4ht
This is the .tex file preview

------------------

Any idea what is the cause of this problem and how to workaround it will be
appreciated as it stopping my build now. I did not do any changes to tex4ht or
to my setup for the last few months and this is first time I see this error.
May be because the table size got larger? But this should not cause a
problem.
