Gordon,

Agree in particular about that "Delete all existing files" button can be disastrous, because it deletes not only the html files in the root folder, but also all other folders in the website, so that deletes what may be a huge bundle of working tools which may take many hours to recover / rewrite / whatever -- certainly much more than expected! If that button is pressed, we need at least a warning dialog and reaffirm/cancel window to pop up before executing.

And yes, sometimes we may not want to generate a new index.htm, so that option would be welcome.

Good thoughts
RonKZ

I and most others are already in overload with all Legacy can do but that
what makes it such a great tool. Right!

Ok, at the risk of adding the zillienth option to Legacy.... I have a couple
more suggestions for Dave as he looks at the web page generation.

1. When creating the web pages, if files exist in the web folder, Legacy
always  asks if you want to "Delete all existing files"and if you want to
to "Remove all existing picture files". Is there a way to turn off these
prompts and have them default to "No"? I NEVER (well  almost never) delete
or remove the pictures and it would be nice not to have  to worry about
accidentally clicking on the wrong button.

2. I have an index.htm file that I have created with all the links into the
Name Index, Surnames etc. that I have to copy to the web directory every
time after the pages are generated. I would like an option to not have
Legacy generate the index.htm (html) file.

Thanks,
Gordon

I know it's a holiday here in the US, but perhaps after the Legacy folks get back from their break, I would hope Support will contact me and take a look at the original file and the rewritten file, then get the programmers to fix these problems. I'm no programmer, but seems to me there can't be all that
much to do.

It would be most helpful if others at LUG would also voice a request that
Legacy fix their html code for pedigree webpages.

thanks so much
RonKZ
