PHPGedView looks a VERY interesting program. Thanks for mentioning it and 
showing me an example of it in use.  It is much appreciated.  I am not 
however sure if it is exactly what I am after as, from first glance, the 
software seems to create a single Family Tree which multiple people can 
access and edit over the internet.  This is a wonderful idea allowing 
dispersed members of a family to research a single shared Family Tree.

Unfortunately my needs are for Linux software which a single user can use to 
create and edit several (say up to 50) completely unrelated and separate 
Family Trees and which will also allow the data from the individual Family 
Trees to be exported as .ged GEDCOM files.

Thanks once again for your reply and for showing me an example of the 
software in use.

sagr.
