Lost my HDD now Frontpage doesn't see the pages as they were published

Hey all, my HDD died last week and I downloaded my whole website back onto
my new HDD into my "my webs" folder. Now, Front Page seems to have lost the
theme I selected on some of the pages. Is there a way to get my new
installation of frontpage to recognize the way the website was published?
Or will I have to redo the whole site from scratch? I thought I could just
down load the entire site and it would be the same as it was published. Am
I doing something wrong?

TIA, I appreciate any help in this matter :)

How did you *download* it back on to your HD?

Thanks for the reply,
Well, I connected with an FTP client and selected all the files and had them
sent back to "my web" folder.
I hope this was the correct way to do this, I am not sure, I am a newbie to
this stuff : )
You can email me at (e-mail address removed) but please remove the
nospam from the address.
Thanks,
Dave

If your host is running the FP SE, don't FTP the site
Instead open the site online in FP and Publish it to your local PC

If your host is not running the FP SE did you FTP all _hidden folders (like _themes)
- note: if you must FTP to get the site, FP will not see any of the design time components and you will have to recreate them
