One of the features of FrontPage is that you can do a search and replace
across the entire site.

Most people who look down upon FrontPage have never fully utilized it.  If
you let it and understand it, it's a very powerful tool.  Yes, it does write
ugly and, in some cases, lengthy, HTML, but the point of FrontPage is that
you don't have to ever look at the HTML if you don't want to. FrontPage can
do wonderful things for you, search out broken links, give estimates on page
loading speeds, search out un-used pages/files within a site, do all the
navigation bars/buttons/links automatically.  Take a look at
http://www.mike.faunce.com for my homepage.

Open Help and look for search and replace.

You may also need to be careful when naming your directory.. ie: one • of them
ends with ".web" , but it is a directory though, so maybe change it to
remove the " . "

What directory are you talking about? The one on my computer?

Both the one on your PC, and the one on the server.

Ah. Now I understand. It did end in .WEB, so I guess I'd better change • it.

OH, NO!!!!!! I just realized that changing the name of the folder involves
repairing TWO-HUNDRED AND EIGHTY-FOUR LINKS manually!!!!

If this is to be a simple set of webpages, then do yourself a favor and • keep
all the files in one directory.

Actually, both unfortunatly and fortunatly, it is not a simple set of
webpages. It contains 172 files, including 140 pictures and 16 pages. • But,
all the files are in one directory (UnitedLF.WEB) or a subdirectory of
UnitedLF.WEB.

But remember that some HTML programs will
read in the path to the file on your own computer and put that in the • code.
This becomes something called an 'absolute path'.  What you really want • is
something like the example I described above, which is called a • 'relative
path'.  The idea being that the code works equally well on both your PC • and
once the files have been uploaded to the server.

Does that mean that I need to change the internal links in my website to • the
full internet path?
