Can I install GRAMPS on a Linux Web Server and use it via a web browser? This would enable my relations worldwide to access and update it.

While GRAMPS can generate web sites, it does not provide a web interface that allows for editing. If this is a requirement, then [http://geneweb.org GeneWeb ] or [http://phpgedview.sourceforge.net PhpGedView ] are programs more likely to meet your needs. However, you may wish to ask yourself the questionfollowing questions: * Do I really want relatives or other people to directly edit my genealogy database? * Do you I implicitly trust, without verification, any data that people may enter? * Do these people have the same understanding of good genealogy practice that you I have? A better approach may be to provide a web form interface that allows others to enter data that is then held for your examination. You can then decide if the information should be entered into your database.<br />Also consider the possible downtime of your site if you cannot afford yourself a premium webhosting service.
