If so, don't. All image and code go on html or tpl pages. Tpl pages can access the .db and display its data according to the WebDNA code. You can put the names of the graphics files in the .db and access them via WebDNA.I hope that answers your concern, but your description of the problem isn't very clear to me.It usually helps if you post your code of a snippet of the .db. That way, people can see what you're doing and may find the bug. >Is there a way to treat my Store site as if it were a directory on my >development computer?Put the Store site and GoLive on the iMac. When you make or revise a page, transfer it over to the server and test it.Just my two cents.Glenn------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
