Hello Ross and All,

Thank you for your advice. It has solved my problem of small pages.  I now 
have changed one setting in the l2hconfig.pm file, namely:

$MAX_SPLIT_DEPTH = 6  (Line # 305 in the l2hconf.pm file)

The other pertinent setting, after some experimentation, I decided to leave at 
its default value:

$MAX_LINK_DEPTH  = 4  (Default configuration value) 

It is great to have some advice on the settings in this configuration file. I 
am grateful to Ross Moore for "getting me out of a hole".  Invaluable!

OldAl.
