As long as you code >relative URLs your stuff should remain portable no matter what.Sounds great!I've been coding relative URLs since you first implemented that capacity in the WebCat2 betas. It makes site design a much simpler task.As far as NT goes, it looks like the only real changes I will need to make from Mac to NT are to replace all the local site links on the NT home page with new ones - like you recommend in your previous message.And of course, I will also need to make sure each new NT site folder is not placed just anywhere, but actually resides within the WebCatalog folder hierarchy, at least for the time being ... :)Anything else I ought to know about porting from Mac to NT? You must have run into *something else* ... right? :)Sincerely, Ken Grome WebDNA Solutions
