That's what I've started doing, just as you describe, but I've called the main page LaptopTestingTeam/Makes.
But for now I thought I'd concentrate on the reorganisation instead of arguing to move LaptopTestingTeam to LaptopTestingTeam/Makes. That discussion can be had later. > > e.g. /LaptopTestingTeam/Laptops/Dell/Inspiron9000 This is where I agree with you but suggest we just do the reorganisation, to move all the existing pages would create some problems. What I've started gives us /LaptopTestingTeam/Dell which lists and links to all the dells, eg it links to /LaptopTestingTeam/DellInspiron9000 Not an ideal solution but good enough for now I think, I'd like to see future, or updated reports moved into this structure. > Main Page with Manufacturers > - Unique Page for each Manufacture which lists ALL models and info, > heavily using a TOC entry > > This would take the 544 pages down to 1 master page and maybe 20 > different manufacturer pagers. ...so 21 vs 544.

I absolutely agree that LaptopTestingTeam has the potential to become LaptopSupportTeam, a place where anyone can find help for their laptop. But at the moment it's a nerd's playground. > Ok, bullseye painted. Open fire. ;-) Duncan -- Linux user: 372812 | GPG key ID: 21A8C63A | http://lithgow-schmidt.dk
