Folders or Files not shown

Guest

I am responsible for two specific sections (with different passwords) of a
much larger website and use Front Page 2003.

Frequently, when I download a folder for the first time from the "remote web
site" box to my local website, the folder appears in my "folder list" but not
in the "local web site" box. In order to work on the files in such folder and
then publish the changes on the "remote web site", I have been transfering
the folder into another folder and then transfering it back again. However,
recently when I have done this the folder (or in certain instances, the files
with the folder) no longer appear in the "remote web site" box after I upload
the changes, although the changes are implemented on the website. In other
instances the contents of these folders appear in the "remote web site" box,
but not in the "local web site" box

On other occasions, when I upload the files to the remote web site has been
rejected, the FrontPage program closes down.

Any ideas how I can overcome this problem?

You should really get your sections of the site set up as a Subwebs to Publish

While FP Remote site view lets you copy files / folders back and forth between the local and remote views, it does not update all FP
site wide meta data and may eventually lead to site corruption

If you do use it use (as you have described) use the refresh button on each view and also the Tools Recalculate Hyperlinks to get
your Folder List View in sync
