Publishing

I have been unsuccessfully trying to upload my web sites
from my Web host to my computer.
One of the confusing issues is that it lists the
"remote" site as the folder on my computer and "Local" as
the Web host. That seems to me to be the reverse of what
it is supposed to be.
Following that every file has the word 'conflict' along
side it.
Please help or advise.
Thank you
Louis

When you have your live or "server version" of your site open in FrontPage it is considered the
"local" site and your computer is then the "remote" site you are publishing too.

Open the version on your computer, and recalculate hyperlinks.
Close the local version.
Open your remote site and recalculate hyperlinks.
Then click File > Publish Web and select the place on your hard drive that contains the web on your
computer.

With FP2003, the local site is the site that is open. The remote site is
the site you are publishing to. The local site could be on your computer,
or hosted on the moon (may have problems with time-outs if it is :)),
whereas the remote site could be anywhere, including your own computer.

"Conflict" means that as far as FrontPage can determine from its meta files,
both files on the local and remote webs have been updated without being
published to each other. If you are absolutely certain the "local" site is
up to date, click publish and choose to overwrite the files in conflict in
the dialogue that pops up.
