Many server hosts have FP set to the default of 1MB max for upload file size
- for very large media files it is often faster to upload using a FTP program

| here's what finally worked - he did a File/Open Site and put in the
|
http://www.domain.com once it was opened - he published it to his local
| drive ... then he closed it all - opened - file/open site from local drive
| and bingo - could FINALLY publish to remote site!! whoohoo!!
|
| NOW....one other question - he's tried several times to upload an audio file
| to go along with his pp presentation file - but it keeps timing out - is
| there anyway to set something so that it won't time out? its a huge file -
| and he has plenty of room on the server 100,000 meg -
|
| thanks
