    1. [FTM-TECH] Ancestry FTM Request for a navigable web report
    2. John Yates
    3. (I will put this in feedback to Ancestry as well as here). I realize that Ancestry FTM wants you to post your trees to their site. I do not do that and can't be convinced to. But I would like to place some navigable trees on my personal web site. To see what I mean see: http://jytangledweb.org/somersfamilytree/ and poke around. Reunion generated this tree. So currently when I want to do this, I export a GEDCOM, import it into Reunion, and generate the html file hierarchy. I simply upload the resulting files and voila, I have a site on my own web site like that above. I would love to be able to do this directly in Ancestry. I think it would be a valuable feature for those of us who avoid uploading our trees to vendor sites. (and in my last message I mentioned that my developing little GEDCOM parsing program may be useful for something. With a little bit of programming I could run this on a GEDCOM of choice and generate my own html version that links much like the Reunion one. But I'd rather have it as a publish option right in FTM). How do others feel about it? If you'd like to see it, please ask for it in feedback. John
