I had the same problems with using Geocities. In early December, I created
a webpage for my students which also worked as a graduate school assignment.
It has been a nightmare to transfer the data over to my school webpage and
work out all of the problems. I would ask many questions before creating a
webpage on a free site if someone will be using it at school!
Wish I would have read this several weeks ago! I have lived and LEARNED!
