Transporting site for review via CD

A

Annette

Am designing a site for a department at a local community college. Nothing
official and am doing it for free -- just trying to help out the head of a
department get her site organized a little. (It's a work-in-progress, and
currently resides only on my home computer. I have no website to post it
to.)

I'd like to take the site to her office via a CD so she and I can look at it
and make decisions on whether I'm headed in the right direction design-wise.

Assuming she has FP installed on her office computer so that once I get
there we can open it, is there some special method I'm supposed to use to
get my site-in-progress onto a disk?

Thanks for advice. (Sorry in advance if I missed some obvious menu choice
in the program. I find stuff about uploading, and importing, but have to
look some more about just plain saving.)

Annette :)

You won't need FrontPage on the other computer to view the site.

Publish the web to an empty folder, and then burn the folder to the CD.

To view the site from the CD, at the other location, put the Cd in the drive, open the
folder and double click index.htm

The site will open and function normally in the browser, with the exception that any items
that need the FrontPage extensions won't work.

Steve -- Thanks so much for the clear instructions.

Will do a step-by-step, and trial-run the CD from my son's laptop (he
doesn't have FP) before the meeting, to see what will and what will not work
when I present it.

Annette :)
