Sorry! I guess I'm a novice at this in comparison to others. I only have 1027 individual pedigree web pages all created in the same folder. Maybe I'll have 207,000 pages some day! That's incredible!

If you use multiple directories building the pages and have re-numbered, or re-used RINs in your family file, then there is no guarantee that any given page will end up in the same folder it was in the first time. All pages linking to that page will also have changed. The change or addition of one RIN can cause a cascade change in all subsequent files and folders. This is obviously a concern only if you have a large file. My current build runs to 207,000 pages in 110 folders. In a test, deleting out three people and re-using the RINs produced changes to more than 3,700 pages. Wm Voss -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of M. Brenzel Sent: Sunday, 30 January, 2005 05:24 To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] Dynamic Data Retrieval I would like the same ability too. Uploading does take a long time even with FTP. However, there is one thing that you can do. But I believe that this depends upon which web page style you are creating. I create "pedigree" styles. Even though only one page has changed, you can create all of the ones in your set as you normally do. As long as you know which person has updated information, then you can just upload that one person's page since there is a one-to-one relationship between people and pages. The name of the file (for example, 1.html) refers to the person's number in your Legacy database. If it's a new person, then it's a new page in sequential number order and can easily be found. Likewise, the surname and source lists are in separate files and can be easily uploaded individually. Same with the names lists - 1 file per letter of the alphabet for surnames. Mary -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Gene Wheeler Sent: Saturday, January 29, 2005 12:23 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [LegacyUG] Dynamic Data Retrieval Is there any way the database residing within Legacy 5 can be accessed in order to create a dynamic web page? I've been looking at GED to HTML programs, such as PhpGedView and DftCom2, but I don't like the way the output is formatted. My complaint with using the Legacy Family Tree web output is the difficulty encountered when an update is required. It generates a big bunch of html files, and they all have to be regenerated and uploaded. The uploading is a pain because there are so many files. Anyone have any ideas around this? Thanks.
