Deleted it & tried again but with same result, any suggestions please? Old site is in 2000. Thanks, John.

Open the site on the server then PUBLISH to a location on your HD _____________________________ Gil Harvey, 1947-2004 (in reply to johnproven)


turboguy Posts: 178 From: Beaver Falls PA USA Status: offline	RE: Importing an existing web - 5/14/2003 23:45:48 To open your site live, open FP and click FILE>>OPEN WEB and in the folder name window type in your URL including the " http" for example " http://www.yourdomain.com" . You will be asked for your username and password. Then the site will open on the server which it resides on. Any modifications done here effect the site on the server. Then select publish and put the file name on your computer where you want the webiste to be locaated. This will publish the website back to your computer. From then on you can do your edits in a normal fashion and publish in a normal fashion. _____________________________ If you really wan't your dreams to come true. Don't oversleep.
