Changed Computers, Lost Website Info.

Re: Changed Computers, Lost Website Info.

OK, thanks. Everything but JPGs are preserved when I transfer via CD, and that's because I don't have the images on my new computer yet. One issue, though: when I transfer the BV files, I can only seem to save them to my desktop and when I click on them, they launch BV but don't automatically open the file that I clicked on. I have to go into BV, select Open, select Desktop, then select the files. Also, all the file names are in all CAPS, so when I try to publish from this computer, they go to different locations (ex.: survey.html vs. SURVEY.html. When I try to rename the files, it just replaces the old ones with CAPS and does not revert to lower case. Is there any way to fix this?

Re: Changed Computers, Lost Website Info.

One more issue here. I have now successfully imported the BV files from my old computer, and resized and imported the images to my hard drive. So...images and plain html text are fine. My only problem is on my navigation links...I have hyperlinks with different rollover qualities. In BV, the text links appear (albeit with the wrong font size), so I fixed the font size and went to preview my site. Only the first hyperlinked piece of text appeared--none of the rest of my links showed up in the preview page. I don't have a traditional navigation bar--each hyperlink was put up individually by hand. Why are they showing up only in BV and not when I go to preview my site? Could this be a problem with the file transfer or is it because I have a newer version of BV on my new computer? Is there any way to avoid re-creating all these painstakingly spaced hyperlinks or is this even possible. A little bewildered...

Re: Changed Computers, Lost Website Info.

Well..just remembered that the navigation is part of a menu bar--but each is a separate menu bar because I wanted greater spacing than was available otherwise. I still have only one of these menu bars showing up when I preview my site--very odd, because the others are exactly the same except for the actual text. I can also make new menu bars with out problem. Is there anything specific that i can do to get these menu bars to show up when I preview?

Re: Changed Computers, Lost Website Info.

Is this a dumb question, but could you just go into file manager and copy the whole public html file back onto your computer?
