This may be a carryover from when I was running the gallery. I was using an ftp transfer program to upload the PUG, and while it would allow as long a filename as I wanted, it would only display the first 8 characters. The last check I did before uploading was to ensure I had three of every filename, and I did that on the ftp program itself. Regarding disallowing anything other than alph-numerics, Igor recommended that I should do that. Now that it's all automated, it shouldn't matter, I suppose, but when we were hand coding each page, and then debugging by eye, it mattered. William Robb
