About PhpGedView PhpGedView is an amazing Open Source program that will allow you to share your genealogy on the Internet using the Gedcom 5.5 data standard. Up until PhpGedView, you could automatically create a website from your genealogy application, but this created thousands of webpages and presented the information in a static way to your visitors. It also gave you very little control over the presentation making it hard to update your site when you added new information.But now with PhpGedView, your genealogy data becomes alive as visitors dynamically browse through the pedigree and descendancy charts, the lists, and the calendars. You can easily search through the data to find just the person you were looking for. You may modify the look and feel of the site by choosing one of the themes included with PhpGedView, or modify the themes to give the site your own unique look. With PhpGedView, whenever you change your data, all you have to do is upload your new gedcom file and the site is automatically updated. PhpGedView will also protect the privacy of your living relatives from public visitors. With PhpGedView, you can also edit your genealogy data right online and create PhpGedView user accounts for your relatives so that they can edit the data allowing you to collaborate together. You don't have to have an account with PGVHosting.com to use PhpGedView. PhpGedView is a free, Open Source application that anyone can download and setup. But it requires a webserver and some technical knowledge about databases and PHP in order to be able to install it and set it up properly. For more information about PhpGedView, visit the project website at http://www.phpgedview.net. At PGVHosting.com we provide the web storage space, bandwidth, and technical expertise needed to run PhpGedView. When you sign up for an account with us we will install and setup PhpGedView for you. Our servers are also tuned to run PhpGedView and we have one of the main developers of PhpGedView on our technical staff. The fees associated with a PGVHosting account pay for these services and not for the PhpGedView program. One of our main goals at PGVHosting.com is to open this great application up to more people and further promote genealogy collaboration using the Internet.
