That's not where the changes need to be made -- it's WebCatalog's own security settings for allowed suffixes that need to be changed. It sounds like you don't have 2.0.1 installed, because you're not getting the right error message displayed. If you install the new Admin templates from 2.0.1 (and ErrorMessages.db), you'll see those suffix preferences in WebCatalog's prefs page.Or, you can open WebCatalog Prefs directly from BBEdit or SimpleText and look for .txt .tmpl etc. and add .html or whatever the suffix of the pages are that are giving you trouble.This is a security precaution we added to WebCatalog 2.0.1 (and up) that makes it impossible for hackers to use WebCatalog to sneek a peek at files you don't want them to see. So for instance if you have set up WebCatalog to process all your .HTML files, it still won't let you see them until you add .HTML to WebCatalog's list of allowed suffixes.Grant Hulbert, V.P.
