I have created my site in frontpage, as the directions below if have to save
my images in a folder and save any javascript and css in a folder. I do not
know how to do this? What is a root folder?Any help would be greatly,
greatly, appreciated.

Thank you! :)

Here are the instructions:

Now, here as promised, are the detailed instructions for duplicating the
SBI! site structure on your computer...

1) The Root Folder and Your HTML Files
On your computer, create a "root folder" and label it the name of your
domain (ex., "anguilla-beaches.com"). Create and edit all HTML files (please
use the ".html" extension for all your HTML files) in this folder. This is
the same "root level" that SBI! builds all HTML pages in. And it is where
your HTML files go when you upload them.

2) Images
On your computer, create an image folder labeled image-files and place that
folder inside your "root folder." Put all your images that you will use on
any page created by your HTML editor into that folder.


3) Media Files
All media files (.avi, .rm, qt, .wmf, .mpeg, .mp3), must be placed in a
folder called media-files. On your computer, create a new folder labeled
media-files, and place it inside your "root folder." Place all your media
files into that folder. When you upload these files, SBI! will automatically
place them into a folder labeled media-files on our servers. Please
Relative-reference all your media files for easy previewing.

4) Other Supporting Files
All other supporting files (JavaScript, Flash, CSS,and PDF), must be placed
in a folder called support-files. On your computer, create a new folder
labeled support-files, and place it inside your "root folder." Place all your
supporting files into that folder. When you upload these files, SBI! will
automatically place them into a folder labeled support-files on our servers.
Please Relative-reference all your supporting files for easy previewing.

Special Note: Please do NOT create any additional folders, or any nested
folders (i.e., do not create a new folder called "baby-movies" and place it
in your media-files folder). SBI! will not accept them. All supporting files
must be called from one of the three folders listed above!

A root folder is any folder you choose as the start of a Web site.

But FP will not support any disc based web or local server based web w/ a URL type name for the root web or any folder in it (as in
anguilla-beaches.com)
- you can't use anguilla-beaches.com for the FP web name
- you can use just anguilla-beaches
