You can either click the "Generate k-mesh using XCrysden" button on the 
Band Structure page in w2web or use the "File-->Open WIEN2k ..-->Select 
k-path" in XCrysDen.  Then, you select the k-path followed by inputting 
the multiplier and k-points along the path (as shown at 
http://www.xcrysden.org/doc/kpath.html ).  After that, it should give a 
dialog box, where you can save the klist file.  If you are using w2web, 
as it shows on the Band Structure page, the filename must be: 
xcrysden.klist (not case.klist).
