Totally Frustrated

Report · May 15, 2007

Help! I check out a page, update it, and put it back, and the whole site goes down. When you look at URL it shows the local source coming from MyDocuments where my localsite is housed - when it should be pointing to the Remote server? Is it just a matter of "get/put" or "Check in/Check out" or is it in my Site settings somewhere? The other person working on this site is getting pissed cuz when I update it - it get's blasted from my local files. HELP!!!

Do you have a local site defined in DW?

Yes - I have a local site defined in the site - it's a trainingsite folder in MyDocuments.

OK - now, with that site selected in DW, please create a new page, and drop
an image from within that site onto the page. Before saving the page,
please copy and paste the code for that image into a reply here. Now save
the page, and repeat the copy and paste after saving the page. Let's see
what that code looks like.

I saved it - it saved to my local. I don't see any difference in code - Did you want me to 'put' it up to the server and copy the code?

I'm afraid that when I 'put' it - it will change the whole site to point back to MyDocuments local server again and lose all the data on the host remote site. I don't want to crash it a third time!

Nothing is changed after you save the file. If the link is correct in the
saved file, it will be correct when you PUT it. And it would take lots more
than an incorrect link to crash something.

As you have shown in your test, the links are being properly managed in DW.
If your links are still broken, please just remake them and save the file,
then verify that the link has been properly rewritten after you save it by
examining the code.
