Croatia Parish book
I need to find the parish book for Ludini or Ludina for the years 1900-1910. They lived In Okoli so I assume the local parish is Ludina. Misko & Apolonja Prelog married 18 Feb 1901 and they had child Marika Prelog 15 June 1906. I would like to find parish records for those dates and perhaps three other children.

Thank you for trying to help, I'm still not finding the book with records after 1857. The records I need are 1900-1910. If anyone can find those records I would be very grateful.

@BrendaPrelog, unfortunately, if it's not on FS, then it may simply not be online anywhere.
Per the Hungarian Genealogy Association's page (dating from 2011) on Croatia, the church registers were collected into thirteen regional archives. The link given for a comprehensive page about those archives is now 404, but I did find a page (in excellent English) from the Croatian State Archives in Zagreb on the topic of researching genealogy at the archive (in person). The writeup includes an email address for inquiries.
Ludina is too far south for this to be relevant, but in 2023, the Roman Catholic diocese in Pécs acquired some church registers from places in Croatia that were formerly within its jurisdiction. It's a pay site, but (unlike many other Hungarian sites) they accept (and in fact require) bank cards for payment.
I find it endlessly amusing that the chosen illustrative snippet is translated as "Per the long-awaited decree of the High Council dated 6 December 1877 number 23237, the registers are to be kept in the Croatian language. God help me!!"

I went to the page suggested by @Julia Szent-Györgyi,
a page (in excellent English), and I got a warning that the site is not secure, but I opened it anyway, and it did open to the correct page.
I also went to the other page she mentioned,
Roman Catholic diocese in Pécs. This page displays in Croation, but Google gives the option to translate it to English. I wish you success in your search to find the records you are seeking.

@LTG50, the Pécs website is in Hungarian. (Pécs = Fünfkirchen = Quinque Ecclesie ["five churches"] is the fifth-largest city in Hungary.) So's the MACSE site, of course. (Sorry, it's very easy to forget which language I read something in.)
The Croatian National Archives site doesn't give Firefox any conniptions whatsoever. Which browser were you using?

@Julia Szent-Györgyi I'm sorry,when the page opened I saw the option to open in English and I didn't pay close enough attention to which language it was translated from. Thank you for the correction.
I was using Google Chrome and that is one of it's apparently build in apps. It's the first time I have seen it.

@LTG50, no apologies needed! Computers are overhelpful in many ways, nowadays. But also actually helpful, occasionally. :-)
