Hi Jill!

I visited your website, and found one problem. Your "Sign Guestbook" Button
is actually to view it and your "View Guestbook" Button is actually to
submit your post.

Also after the question about if you are a member of the list there is no
box to answer, however there is an empty box just under the statement about
"See the home page to tell you how. . .

Your guestbook is a different version then mine. All I had to do was change
the name of the html file that you sign the guestbook at. Yours does not
look that simple, Pat may have to help you with that.

OK after I tryed to submit my post to your guestbook I got an error message
saying that I at least had to enter my name, email address, and comment, all
of which I had done. Hummm. It will not let me sign.

Now in answer to the question that you asked, find the line that says:
<center><b>[ <a
href="http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~glamorgan/guest.htm">Back to
Home Page</a> ]</b></center><p>

First of all it thinks that the word Back in your link text is part of the
address. That can't be good. The other part is your line should read like
this:

<center><b>[ <a
href="http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~glamorgan/newgb.htm">; Back
to Home Page</a> ]</b></center><p>

notice the different htm filename. I would suggest that to correct both
problems that you copy the above line as it is and paste it into your html
document.

I just came off of 8 hrs night shift and I really need to get some sleep.
I'll be able to give a more comprehensive answer in a couple of days.

By the way as a fee for helping you a copied the jave test for that date
applet on your home page. It looks good on my home page. Thank you.
