And, what works is not what you said would work :-( If your account is on the Freepages server, the problem with using "/" to indicate root, is that you don't have access to the root directory. The configuration on that server uses internal redirects so you can have multiple URLs in one account. The path you see is http://freepages.xxxx_html.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~accountname/ Whereas, on the server, the actual path is: http://freepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~accountname/xxxx_html/ Pat
