Publishing to local drive

[Guest]

I am looking to publish a website to my local drive for a demo. I will then be performing the demo without a connection to the internet, thus I will be offline. How do I publish my website to my local drive and view it while I am offline?

File Menu | Publish Web / Site and enter c:\demo as the destination

Open your site, and choose File | Publish. Instead of entering in a web
address, simply enter a file path such as "c:\mywebsite". Just open your
home page file from that directory and your site should work pretty much as
it does on the web. The only exception to this is if you use any of the
FrontPage components that require a server with the Server Extensions such
as form handlers and the like. Give it a try and see if it meets your
needs.

What does the code for the link look like? I just whipped up a simple disk
based web with links into subdirectories and all the links work correctly.

You can download the sample disk based web from here to see if it works for
you:

Compare the links in my site to yours. You'll probably see some
differences.

Thanks Jack - I tried this and get a "page cannot be displayed error".

When I type in c:\mysite\index.htm the main page draws, however, the links
bring me to a "page cannot be displayed and the url seems to eliminate the
mysite\directory. For example the link for products should be
c:\mysite\products\product1.htm, instead I get c:\products\product1.htm.
