DreamWeaver
expects you to use a local root folder. Remember that it is very
important that you put all the files associated with your web pages,
(including your web pages), images, documents, etc. inside the
local root folder. The local root folder makes it easier to Put
your files up, or copy your files to the web server. You will have
a duplicate copy of your local root folder on the web server. |
