Back about fifteen years, or so, ago I used a program called GED2WWW to create my genealogy website [ example: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~billie0w/data/dat26.htm ]. I exported a GEDcom from Brothers Keeper and GED2WWW created an entire web site ready for upload. It's very simple HTML with no bells or whistles. Easy to add to or change in any editor. It won't "validate" because it uses some deprecated tags, but it does show properly in any browser. I have never had to generate a new website in all the years it's been online. -- "A good moral character is the first essential in a man." George Washington _ _... ..._ _ _._ ._ ..... ._.. ... .._

I do quite often when I receive new information or I find new sources or someone contacts me with a correction to info they have provided earlier. If I had created the site by generating it from the GEDCOM file from my genealogy program, I would need to regenerate the pages. Which is why I prefer WorldConnect. I simply replace the GEDCOM and the new pages are generated for me. pat

Thanks Billie, But I'm afraid that wouldn't work for me. I update my file often so I would need to restyle every page by hand each time if I did it that way. I can live with the text wrapping around the left menu on the genealogy pages. But I would like to figure out how to get the divs set right... Or I could just take the left menu off the RM pages. Not sure yet lol.
