Normally you would change the currently active Gedcom using the Welcome Page menu. However, you may often want to link into a specific Gedcom from another page. This can be done by setting the “ged” paramter on the URL. For example, if you have two gedcoms on your site: gedcom1.ged and gedcom2.php you could link to the pedigree chart for these gedcoms using the following urls: http://www.mysite.com/phpGedView/pedigree.php?ged=gedcom1.ged http://www.mysite.com/phpGedView/pedigree.php?ged=gedcom2.
