jessemc here with coupla ? Has anyone used "Legacy" to create a family web
page? If so what avenue did you use to upload & haow do you rate the
results? I'm considering using that avenue because it seems simple enough &
after all I'm not the 'sharpest knife in the drawer when it comes to
"computin"

Your internet provider (he who provides the web space for your pages)
should be able to supply instructions on how to upload. It will probably
involve you running some FTP client software on your PC. I use WS_FTP
Limited Edition which was free. I don't know if it is still available
.... try googling for it.

& haow do you rate the results?

You can view your webpages (before you upload) so you can see your
results right now. If you don't like what Legacy creates, you should try
other programs. Or write your own like I did.

Last year, I had to provide a group of netters with an FTP software
and WS FTP was no more free. Instead, it was a demo working for a
short time. I suggested instead to use FileZilla, which is fine to
use. I have from time to time a problem with switching filenames
(i.e. download filea and fileb and on the web, filea has the content
of fileb), but this happened only on a Windows server. Also, for
very large files (over 10 MB), it can be a problem. Otherwise, I
prefer by far filezilla and almost never use WS FTP anymore.
Filezilla can download and move directories for example. You can
select and download many files in one operation (but be careful
if you download from/to different directories).

& haow do you rate the results?

You can view your webpages (before you upload) so you can see your

I wouldn't suggest to someone with no FTP knowledge to write a GEDCOM
viewer...

When I last tried to use Legacy to generate web pages the minimum size was
about 30M - considering most ISPs only give you 10M (here in Australia) it
was a bit pointless

I find it easier to load my files to http://www.geneanet.org and
http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/ and they look after the presentation - I
just supply the data.

my 10c worth

Yep, works well enough, see http://www.bellisworld.com I keep my PC legacy
file updated, and occasionally update the web version. I've had a few
very long lost family members appear out of the woodwork through
stumbling across the site. Useful as a reference point for others.

I've set Legacy to suppress details of alive people.
