Babul Gogoi,

I don't think I am the one to help you at this point.  I think I started
with phpWebSite around 0.9.3.  As such, I never experienced the
conversion struggles that you are going through.  Perhaps some of the
other developers remember these times.  I wonder if 0.9.3 may be a
better conversion release than 0.9.4.  By the time 0.9.4 rolled around
as far as I can tell and remember most of the sites that would convert
to 9x from 8x had already done so.  So that's why I am guessing that
0.9.3 may be a better "conversion release" for you.   Do you have
millions and millions of pages to convert or just 10 or so?  If there
are just a few pages, then coping the data from one page to the new
0.10.x page may be a better solution.

Perhaps wendall911 or singletrack would be interested in a
$professional$ engagement to help you through your conversion woes.

I hope this gets you on your way.

Greg
