Ron,
Yesterday, given the problem I encounter, I close all my programs
down and I did a clean-up on my system (cookies, history, temp files,
etc.) and I deleted the web pages I built. Following that I returned to
Legacy and created a new web page. As I noted his went without a
problem and I was able to upload to my host and am running it now.
I just did another new create web page and again it came up clean
(no extra source files). I think there was a probably residual
files/data left on my Legacy which was causing this data to build and
clearing everything out clean it up.
I'll keep your recommended fix on queue and should I incur the
problem again, I'll try it.
Thanks to you and everyone who helped get this matter resolved.
Dennis
