I downloaded GedHTree and hit a problem with translating from my GEDCOM data file to HTML.
I did not correctly transferring marriage details to the HTML file. I get the entries and , instead of the correct data.
There is an option in FH (under preferences) to save Family records before Individual records. The help says 'in GEDCOM, all records apart from the header and trailer, can be saved in any order. However, some applications expect Individual records to be saved before Family records, and some may expect the reverse. Family Historian outputs Individual records before Family records by default, but you can output them in the reverse order if you wish. In general, you are recommended to leave this option unchecked unless you have a good reason to do otherwise. '
For a reason I cannot remember I had selected for family records to be selected first, and unselecting this option i.e. saving individual records before family records cured the problem.
I hope this made avoid others having the same problem.

Hi,
Thanks for the warning. Most GEDCOM exporting programs, put people first and there are quite a few programs like GEDHTREE that expect the data to always be that way around. FH added the option to swap the data in 2.1, prior to that it always listed the families first.
