Hi Steve,
the examples are indeed out-dated.
1) 'backend is now
'org-export-current-backend (though I am not sure, I think there was
also 'latexp at some time).
2) If the latex block is evaluated at all and a file argument is
present, this will be used. So the block meant to go the latex->PDF
route should not contain the :file argument.
3) Even if ":results graphics" or ":results file" is specified, the
results of a latex block seem to be wrapped in
#+begin_latex...#+end_latex. So for the block meant to go to the
html, one way is to specify ":results org". But here I get a
spurious ORG-ORG-START ...
Anyway, besides that ORG-ORG-START thing, this seems to work on my side:
