Don't consider it working in a DBW - just a detour to get the DWT to update
After your DWT update (and reverse publish) go back to working in the server based web
WSS (although is supports the automatic update) is not the solution, since it loses all the other FP run time component
| Oh, IC, then from what you and Jim are saying, I can't manage DWT well with
| 2002 extensions?
|
| And if I create or publish to a disk based site then I can use the update
| all feature?
|
| Thanks I will try this but I must tell you that it feels really
| uncomfortable working with a disk based site after using FP and localhost
| for 5 years. It doesn't feel natural
|
| I suppose if I had ShrePoint installed on my server then I could do a lot
| more with DWT. I wish MS had of released 2003 server extensions instead of
| or as well as SharePoint. It's had to get a good priced reseller web host
| that provides SharePoint.
|
| Thanks guys
