Oh, one thing I forgot to mention. If you put a bunch of links in the Web
Addresses list and then start the mirroring, the index start file created in
the top directory lists all the links and names them with the titles of the
pages they link to.

However, if I then add more links to the Web Addresses list (keeping the old
ones there as well so that they are still listed in the index start page as
discussed at the top of this thread) and then update the mirror, all the new
links will be named with the titles of the pages they link to, but all the old
links that were there before are renamed to just the address itself.

::Example Start::

First Mirror:
-Web Addresses List:
<http://www.site.com/news.htm>
<http://www.site.com/coolstuff/page03.htm>
<http://www.site.com/coolstuff/page09.htm>
<http://www.site.com/about.htm>

-Resulting Index Start Page Links
News: We get it first!
Cool Stuff: Page 3
Cool Stuff: Page 9
What We're About

Update Mirror:
-Web Addresses List:
<http://www.site.com/fun.htm>
<http://www.site.com/coolstuff/page11.htm>
<http://www.site.com/places.htm>

-Resulting Updated Index Start Page Links
<http://www.site.com/news.htm>
<http://www.site.com/coolstuff/page03.htm>
<http://www.site.com/coolstuff/page09.htm>
<http://www.site.com/about.htm>

Places To Go

::Example End::

This problem, and the problem I discussed in the original post may be able to
be fixed by the same thing. If HTT can just be told to leave everything alone
in the original Index Start Page and ONLY add new links as they are created,
then that should fix everything.
