   Thanks. I confused myself a few times, with filenames that already had 
an A at the end like karmaa.htm
   I also separated them with audio files being htm and lesson files being 
html

   I am wondering,.. now that the new audio files are mp3, do they need a 
popup player? I did not include the audio mp3s in the zip.

   No, they are two different files.
cintro introduces the course to potential members in the public pages. 
Public pages don't need renaming... except for the sample lessons, and they 
will be redone.

  My error:  01cintro is actually called 01studygd.html in the tantra 
folder. The content is from the lower part of the members index. I'm making 
it the first lesson because I found people did not scroll down the index 
page to read it, before starting the course.

   I started out naming them like that, because it makes it easier to 
distinguish a 1 from a lower case L or uppercase i.. but abandoned it in 
favour of having a shorter filename. Spiritual people tend to have ancient 
computers, in my experience.

   13_heartchak_p.html gets kind of long, and has too many underscores. 
Looks awkward. Aesthetically displeasing. People rarely type the filenames 
anyhow, mostly it is all bookmarks and links. I think the important thing 
about renaming, is to have the files fall in order in the directory.

   Some of my filenames could be shorter. It could be 13heart.

   What do you think?
