IWeb 2008 and publishing via CD?

I'm working on a volunteer project. It's a simple, small web-site for a historical/reunion organization with a very small budget.
The web-site is being put together in iWeb, but I cannot publish it directly. A local businessman is offering to publish on server space reserved for his business. I will have to burn the site to a CD-R, give it to the business, and then the site will be published to that server.
The business owner already registered a domain name with GoDaddy, so people interested in the web-site will type in the URL, and it will reflect to the business owner's server.
NOW FOR THE BURNING QUESTION! (Pun intended) How do I burn the site from, iWeb 2008 to a CD-R to give to the business owner? Is there any special procedure I should follow?

I'm a little confused.
Why do you distinguish between the index.html file and the folder?
Is there something there I should be aware of?

  • IWeb photo captions published via ftp?

    I'm new to iWeb - are photo captions published via ftp now that MobileMe is defunct?  The info in Publish Site says no.  As I wish to use photos purchased and downloaded from a stock agency, they must be captioned with the photographer's name.  I can work around this by acknowledging the photographers in a list above the Album I've created rather than under each photo (if this proves to be acceptable to the stock agency), but this isn't ideal.  Thanks for any advise you can offer.

    Captions added to the images inside a photos template are published no matter where you publish your website.
    The number of caption lines is chosen in the photo Grid popup window...

  • IWeb Update and publishing errors

    I have just installed the latest iWeb update and now I have a chronic publishing error of which I can not seem to fix? The error message states:
    *+An error occurred while publishing file “/Web/Sites/Sites.rss”. Try publishing again later.+*
    Any suggestions would be appreciated. I have rebooted; reinstalled the updates; download "all to .Mac" and even "downloaded all to folder"...it is when I try publishing directly or via "all to .Mac" that I receive this frustrating error.

    I too am having htis problem. The solution suggested can't be done for me as there is no 'Web' folder on my iDisk. Maybe this is because I set up my account a while ago, before iWeb was introduced. Maybe I need to get in touch with Apple to get them to create a Web folder for me. (I tried myself, but don't have privileges.

  • Google Analytics and Publishing Via FTP

    This may have been asked here before but, is there any way to ad google analytics to an iweb site that is published within iweb Via FTP? I haven't found any way to do it yet. Is there any way to do it with out using an external FTP program

    Hello and welcome.
    To add Analytics (assuming you already have the code from Google) you must publish your IWeb created site to a folder on your hard drive first.
    Use a tool like IWEB SEO TOOL (Here: http://www.ragesw.com/products/iweb-seo-tool.html) and after applying the code to all your HTML pages upload your website FTP.
    You will have to reapply the code everytime you make a change and republish your website.

  • Muliple iWeb sites and publishing into folders

    I have 2 questions.
    1) I want to be able to have multiple iWeb sites that are unique to each other. Is there an easy way to do that?
    2) Related to the 1st question, I am trying to publish just one folder (or site) within the iWeb window. I imagine that would be easy if I knew how to do question one. But in the possibility that a iWeb would have multiple site folders within them, is there a way to just publish one to a folder? I am using iWeb to publish to an external webhost (not .mac) and havent been able to figure this out. I have always been able to just publish all to a folder and then just cherry pick what I want to ftp upload to the hosted site.
    Thanks in advance for any help you can give...

    Ken:
    Here's how I handle multiple sites:
    One way to handle multiple sites is to use iWebSites. It lets me create multiple sites and multiple domain files. If you have multiple sites in one domain file here's the workflow I used to split them into individual site files with iWebSites.
    For me it makes updating/editing several sites and then publishing only one very easy.

  • ICal 2.0.5 and publish via FTP?

    I have been using the free plugin scalp (http://pygmysoftware.com/software/scalp/) to enable iCal to publish a calendar to an FTP site (where I am displaying it with phpicalendar). It has been working great, was easy to set up, and is free (although donations are encouraged).
    Unfortunately, the 10.4.9 update installed a new version of iCal (2.0.5) which is now giving me the following message when it loads "iCal 2.0.5 (v1069) has not been tested with the plugin Scalp (null) (v0.1). As a precaution, it has not been loaded. Please contact the plugin developer for further information."
    Several questions:
    1. I can't find any information anywhere about what iCal 2.0.5 adds - i.e., does it by any chance add the ability to publish a calendar via FTP?
    2. Is there a way to get iCal to load the plugin, so that I can test to see if it works without issue?
    I have contacted the developer, but thought I would ask here also to cover all bases.
    Thanks,
    Barry

    Please check http://pygmysoftware.com/software/scalp/
    There is a new version of Scalp working with 2.0.5 again and brings back usable FTP-export.

  • How can I open and edit files that were developed and published by ftp to my host on my old macbook, which I can no longer access.

    How can I open and edit files that were developed and published via ftp to my host on my old macbook, which I can no longer access. The HD containing the files cannot be accessed. I want to be able to download the published files to be edited in iweb?

    You CAN'T download published files and then edit them in iWeb because iWeb can't open them - it has no import facility so is unable to open any html or css files - a previously published site.
    You can download these files yes, but you'll need to use them as a guide or to cut and paste text from there whilst you re-build your site in iWeb.
    The only other way is to download the files and then open them with an html editor such as TextWrangler or use one of the other web design programmes out there that is capable of importing html and css such as Dreamweaver of Flux 4.
    These are your only alternatives as iWeb can't import and if you want to continue to use iWeb, then you'll have to re-build your site from scratch.  If you do just remember to back up your domain.sites file this time around - it is found under your User/Library/Applicaion Support/iWeb/domain.sites.

  • IWeb, Fetch and Yahoo Web hosting

    When I create an iWeb site and publish it to a folder, then use FETCH to upload to my yahoo website, there is a double referencing of the domain name that causes a 404 error when I try to visit the site. Any solutions?

    There's no such thing as "way to go".
    iWeb creates a folder with the sitename and an index.html file outside it.
    Put these on the server. Or put the contents on the server and do not click the visit button or announce the site.
    And if you have an RSS feed of a photoalbum subscription, then you will get the error because iWeb uses the sitename.
    Follow the links for the solution I gave earlier.
    You can put any number of folders on the server. There is no 'must'.

  • I'm having difficulty publishing via ftp to Machighway, I suspect this has to do with the fact I seperated my webpages into 3 sites in iWeb. Can any one tell me how to undo this in iWeb?

    I'm having difficulty publishing via ftp to Machighway, I suspect this has to do with the fact I seperated my webpages into 3 sites in iWeb. Can any one tell me how to undo this in iWeb?

    You'll have to describe in detail the workflow you're using to upload to Machighway and any messages/warnings that you get along the way.  Also what version of iWeb are you using and are you publishing just one of your sites?

  • An error occurred while publishing file "/Web/Sites/iWeb/Jim and Steph's Si

    I'm guessing this is a common message most see when they try to publish their website. Reason I say this, is it is the only message I have recieved in the last week when trying to use this faulty software.
    Here it is again if you missed it:
    An error occurred while publishing file “/Web/Sites/iWeb/Jim and Steph's Site/Jim's Blog”.
    I got this MacBook week ago yesterday. Totally excited to share pictures and blog information. Spent 99 dollars or close to it for a mac account to simply share this information on the web. The first four pages (all pictures), I published worked well. Then I updated to iWeb 1.1.1 and tried to publish with blogs and more pictures and it won't work. Now all that I published before does not even come up. I emailed support here on mac.com and got the generic reply that I have already read on this forum. I tired as many fixes as I could to no avail. Two questions:
    1. Any ideas to fix this problem?
    2. Can you get your money back?
    Sorry this was so long.
    Thanks everyone,
    Jim B

    Jim...
    Try doing a "Publish All to .Mac" if nothing else works for you. And if I could make a recommendation, it probably wouldn't be a bad thing to simplify your site name (Jim and Steph's Site) and eliminate the apostrophes (also in Jim's Blog). A longer site URL with complexities such as punctuation and spaces and even capitalization can potentially wreak havoc on your site navigation and function. Simplifying your site and page names will at the very least lead to shorter and more recognizable URLs...and when you start to add more pages it will also make the navigation menu at the top of your pages look "cleaner". Think simple names, like "oursite" and "HeSays" or "SheSays"
    Just a suggestion.

  • Possible Bug with Drag-and-Drop Being Published via HTML5 - Getting "Undefined" Error When Dragging Object

    Hello,
    I came up with a way to use drag-and-drop interactions that will take advantage of file input so that I may create a drag-and-drop interaction that uses one draggable object over and over allowing multiple scoring/tracking possibilities.  Example use...is having the draggable object be dynamic in that it randomly changes its text so that a learner can drag a term it's possible classification.........thus allowing the possibility of having many terms easily loaded without having to redo a drag-and-drop interaction for each needed terms/classifications updates/changes.
    My Issue: When using a variable to represent the text for a draggable Smart Shape object, I'm getting the error message "undefined" when, clicking/pressing on the object, as well as during the drag of the object. This issue occurs when publishing the project in an HTML5 format.  Flash interestingly enough seems to work perfect...but we are not interested in publishing via Flash any longer.
    To better help you explore this error message, I've set up a test project so that you can see when and how the "undefined" message shows up during a drag-and-drop interaction.  I've also included the Captivate 8 project file used to make the exploration project I'm sharing in this post.
    Link to Captivate project I created for you all to explore "undefined" error message": http://iti.cscc.edu/drag_and_drop_bug/
    Link to this Captivate 8 Project file: http://iti.cscc.edu/drag_and_drop_bug.cptx
    It's pretty interesting how things react in this demo, please try the following actions to see some interesting happenings:
    Drag the Yellow (or variable drag box) to the drag target.
    Drag Black Hello square to Drag target and click undo or reset - watch the undefined message come up on the Yellow (or variable drag box).
    Drag the Yellow (or variable drag box) to the drag target and then use the undo or reset.
    Move both draggable boxes to the drag target and use the undo and reset buttons...
    Anyhow, I know you all are sharp and will run the demo through its paces.
    I'd really be very honored if anyone help me figure out how I could (when publishing out to HTML5) no longer have the "undefined" error message show up when using drag-and-drop with a variable for shape text. This technique has been well received at the college I work at...and I have many future project requests for using such an idea on a variety of similar interactions. I'd love see a solution or see if this might be a bug Adobe may be able to fix!
    I tried to find a solution to the issue documented here for quite some time, but I was not able to find anyone with this problem much less attempting the idea I'm sharing in the help request -  save the darn "undefined" message that comes up!
    Many thanks in advance for any help and/or direction that you all may be able to provide,
    Paul

    Hello,
    I just wanted to supply a minor update related to my drag-and-drop question/issue stated above:
    I did another test using Captivate 7, and found that the undefined error (publishing as HTML5) does not appear and the variable data remains visible - except the variable data turns very small and does not honor any font size related settings.
    I did go ahead and submit this to Adobe as a possible bug today.
    Thanks again for any help related to this issue.  If the issued documented above is solved, it will allow many amazing things to be done using Captivate's drag-and-drop for both regular type projects as well as interaction development for iBooks! 
    Matter of fact if this issue gets fixed, I'll publish a Blog entry (or video) on way's I've used Captivate's drag-and-drop to create dynamic learning activities for Higher Ed. and for use in iBooks.

    iWeb has two other ways to publish your site...
    http://www.iwebformusicians.com/iWeb/Publish-Website.html
    ... and the second method allows you a choice of how you upload the files...
    http://www.iwebformusicians.com/iWeb/URLs-Favicons.html
    Here's a publishing workflow checklist...

    The MobileMe only features can be replaced by alternatives...
    http://www.iwebformusicians.com/iWeb/Comments-Password-Protect.html
    If you have folders of assets outside of the main website folder on MobileMe, download them from the Apple server. From the Finder Go menu, follow the path iDisk/My iDisk/ to get there. Your website files are in the Web/Sites folder. Drag any files/folders onto the desktop.
    Use an FTP application to upload these assets to the root folder on your new server...
    http://www.iwebformusicians.com/Search-Engine-Optimization/Upload.html
    ...and change the relevant URLs to...
    http://www.domain-name.com/Folder-Name/file-name.file-extension
    There are lots of options for hosting for about half the cost of MobileMe...
    http://www.iwebformusicians.com/iWeb/Website-Hosting.html
    If you have been using a web.me.com domain name, you need to register a new one. Most hosting services give you at least one free and registering with your hosting company will make forwarding and managing it a lot easier.
    Make sure you add the new name to Google and create, upload and enter a new sitemap.xml...

  • How to upload and publish a non iweb site to mobile me

    How do I upload a website I made from a flash template to my mobile me server, I had a iweb website published there, now I want to use my same domain name and publish the new flash site I created to the mobile me server and disable the iweb site.

    Just log into your MobileMe account and go to your iDisk and delete the iWeb site that is there.
    You can load your other site there by simply dropping and dragging your files for your new site to the Sites folder on your iDisk. Alternatively, MobileMe uses webdav so you can use Cyberduck to publish too.

  • Saved and published updated website, changes not saved in iweb.  Have lost all work in iweb but correct site is on the internet.  Can I retrieve site from internet and replace to iweb so can continue updating?

    Just finished updating web site, saved and published.  Showed up on the internet finr, went back to do a few tweeks and all my days work is gone!  Fine on the net gone in iweb!  I don't want to loose the days work.  Is there any way to get the website from the internet and stuffit back into iweb, without redoing all the work?  Why didn't it save?  Wjat can I do to prevent this happening again?  Where did I go wrong?

    Publish you site to a folder on your hard drive and open it locally with your browser.  Check to see if the site is all there.  If not
    Try the following:
    delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your Home() /Library/Preferences folder.
    go to your Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete its contents.
    launch iWeb and publish to the folder again.
    If that doesn't help continue with:
    move the domain file from your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder to the Desktop.
    launch iWeb, create a new test site, save the new domain file and close iWeb.
    go to the your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and delete the new domain file.
    move your original domain file from the Desktop to the iWeb folder.
    launch iWeb and try again.

  • I am an artist who built my site on iWeb 08. Although I have easily been able to transfer to Godaddy, my ability to publish is limited. I must upload my entire site and it is time consuming. How do I convert to iWeb 09 and is this easy to do?

    Help! I am an artist who had my site professionally designed on iWeb 08. Although I have  been able to transfer to Godaddy, my ability to publish is limited. I must upload my entire site and it is time consuming.  I was advised to update to IWeb 09 (which I could get, I think? from Amazon) because it has a built- in option to publish to any FTP. How do I convert my 08 folder to an 09 folder?  Will it convert correctly?  I know eventually I will need to rebuilt the site, but I would like to use this option for awhile to buy time. Is this feasible? I currently own a Mac Pro.

    Its just a question of installing the later version of iWeb from the iLife disk and opening your website in that version. Its a good idea to have a backup of your Domain.sites2 file before doing this. See this page for its location...
