Display my catalogue on the web

Hi
I want to be able to display my catalogue online, the basic html export is rubbish but I really dont want to have to go nuts and start learning new stuff, I dont have the time.
Is there an easy and decent way to do this?

Thanks

Nat.

If by basic HTML export you mean the default template, there are several others.
If you want more than just an export with a HTML template, you have to know a little PHP/MySQL to not have to lean new stuff to page something more advanced as export...

Yes the basic HTML export is way too basic. Its not something I would like my friends to look at when choosing a movie for movie night!
I don't need anything too flash, just a little more nicely set out than the basic html export. Something to easily see my 400odd movies.

you can take a look into the template area here in the forum.
perhaps you´ll find something more "handsome".

IVe been playing around and figured out the whole deal with using other templates now, however not all of them seem to export the pictures
what am I doing wrong?

Difficult to tell without more info
It exports the html files correctly but has broken picture placeholders? Are the pictures files exported though? Or not at all?

When I go to export in the file menu I choose HMTL.
Then a window opens and at the top of this windows I click on the yellow folder icon called "open".
I then navigate to C:/ProgramData/AntMovieCatalog/Templates
Inside the templates folder are a number of htm and html template.
Some work perfectly, they export all the images and the html file
Some do not, they only export the html file, some create a pictures folder but its empty, other dont even create the pictures folder.

Some template actually use two files as template.
There are "Full" and "Individual" tabs.
The "full" tab is for one HTML page that has the whole list of movies, the "individual" tab is for making one HTML page per movie.
So some template are made for generating a list of the titles with links to the detail pages.

Yes I figured that was the case.
Oh well I will keep trying until I get something
