Trouble getting iWeb pages to hosting site

I am having trouble getting my updated iWeb pages loaded to my GoDaddy hosting web site. Every time I update a page in iWeb and then upload the pages by ftp to Godaddy, the home page either does not show up or it is badly distored or botched. Godaddy says it is an iWeb problem. The guy said something about "scripting". I am lost and frustrated. Help please!
Thanks.

Thanks for the help. I have rebuilt the Index page, again. I tried the local folder, saved to Sites on the Mac. Then I uploaded just the index page directly to Godaddy using the ftp in my file manager, but this time nothing.
I went back to the iWeb ftp to upload the Index page to the subfolder in my root directory on GoDaddy and moved all the files I could find to the root. THis time I have some of the elements of the index page in place (pictures, links) but none of the template background, colors, or fonts. All the other pages are OK.
Here is my home page: http://www.hijinkscotties.com
Did I miss an iWeb update that has changed anything in the program? Is this a scripting issue? (Whatever that means?)
Thanks-

    Check if any of the below have an older version by contacting the author for your 10.4.11:
    http://www.rbrowser.com/
    http://rsug.itd.umich.edu/software/fugu
    http://cyberduck.io/
    http://panic.com/transmit/

    Or use Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal to do command line FTP:

    Upgrading to 10.6.8 should still give you mostly the same compatibility as 10.4.11. Upgrading to 10.7 and above won't.

  • Deleted pages in iWeb and on hosting site but still appear in navbar?

    I've deleted a couple of pages in a site built in iWeb and also deleted the files and html of those pages where my site is hosted (Earthlink). However, I'm still seeing the names of those pages in the navbar — NOT in iWeb, but when i actually access the site. The pages themselves are not there anymore, but their names remain in the navbar (and click through to an error msg).
    This makes me think I haven't uploaded all the necessary changes. Where does the code for the navbar reside? I reloaded the home file+html (among other pages) but not the index.

    If you are using the iWeb default navigation, try publishing to a local folder and upload the feed.xml with your FTP application.

  • Redirect iWeb Pages To External Sites?

    I have a persona domain that I have linked to my .mac account. I have a previous blog that I am trying to substitute on my site instead of having to create a whole new one using the iWeb blog feature. How do I do this?
    Currently, I have tried to change my CNAME records at my Domain control panel. I use blogger.com so I entered in a new CNAME record that would direct to the correct destination field.
    All I want to happen is to have on my navigation bar where it says blog to redirect to myname.blogger.com. I can not figure out how to do this. Maybe I am just making it too complicated.

    I was struggling with this same problem for a few hours tonight and finally got it figured out.
    1. Create a blank page in iWeb and set it to be included in the navigation bar.
    2. After publishing your site, find the file iWeb creates called "index.html" and open it with a text editor. (I like TextWrangler, but TextEdit should work as well.)
    3. The file should be very short. Find the section that looks like this:
    meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url= PageName.html" /
    4. Replace the portion after "url=" with the full external URL you want the navigation bar link to point to. For example, your final line might look like this:
    <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=http://myblog.blogspot.com" />
    5. Select "Save as...", and use this file to replace the blank iWeb page you created for the Navbar. (If you made Blog.html, this will become your new "Blog.html" file. (Don't just save the file, or you'll screw up your index file. We're just using it as a template.)
    For an example of this fix in action, here's my site where I did this exact same thing earlier this evening:
    www.timelypersuasion.com
    (click on the "blog" link in the navbar to see the external redirect)
    Hope this helps.

  • Add iWeb page to exisitng site?

    Is it possible to intermingle an iWeb page within an exisiting website without creating problems and messing up my exisitng site? Or do I need to add some other way?
    I imagine I could uploadt via FTP (to my server's public_html folder???) and use Contribute to link the iWeb page(s) to my exisitng site...
    If all this is possible would someone give me the steps?
    Mille Grazie,
    Rich

    Is it possible to intermingle an iWeb page within an
    exisiting website without creating problems and
    messing up my exisitng site? Or do I need to add some
    other way?
    Yes, this is possible. You just do this with links in your existing site.
    I imagine I could uploadt via FTP (to my server's
    public_html folder???) and use Contribute to link the
    iWeb page(s) to my exisitng site...
    That's right, you can upload your iWeb site folder to your server's public_html folder...just be able to describe the site folder in a URL...
    If all this is possible would someone give me the
    steps?
    1. Publish iWeb site using "Publish to Folder" onto your desktop. You will see a folder containing two things: an "index.html" file and the actual site folder.
    2. Upload this site folder to your server using your FTP program. Put it wherever you are instructed to upload HTML files. Upload just the site folder (one of the two items resulting from iWeb's Publish to Folder command).
    3. Test out your iWeb site by accessing it from the URL that it should be accessible from your server... this will be the URL that you must provide links to in your existing site.
    4. Edit your existing site to provide links to the new iWeb pages...using contribute or whatever you usually use. Link to your iWeb site using the URL you discovered in Step 3.
    Hopefully this is all working! Good luck!

  • Adding Individual IWeb pages to existing site.

    I have a website that I created not using IWeb. Can I use IWeb to create a photo gallery page and add just that page to my website. I have a ton of pages and I don't want to start over but I like the way the slide show galleries work in IWeb. I also have good search engine placement and I don't want to mess with a good thing.

    I would suggest that it is never a good idea to try creating another page with something other than you created your original site with.
    Go back and create a page with the package you used to create the original site or totally re-build the whole site again in iWeb.
    I'm not sure you will be able to get this to work because of the way in which iWeb publishes with an html page and the CSS folder that goes with it - most others create the pages and one CSS file for the whole site.
    If you just want one page, then why not create it by hand using a text editor such as TextWrangler? Create what you want and just place a link within that page to the CSS folder that already exists for the rest of your site. This way, you will achieve a uniform look to your site with the extra page and you can easily create the links to the rest of your site and then just upload one page using Cyberduck or Transmit or something similar.

  • IWeb generated MobileMe hosted site - Can I customize the URL?

    I hope that my question is worded properly. I am not at all a pro. The site was created using iWeb, but the URL http://web.me.com/[YourMemberName]/[SiteName] is not desirable as the member name has nothing to do with the content. Is it at all possible to shorten the URL to http://web.me.com/[SiteName]?
    Thanks for your consideration.

    Bonjour
    Your page URLs are like that:
    http://web.me.com/YourMemberName/SiteName/Pagename.html
    And they can be like this (if you buy a domain name) :
    http://www.mywonderfulwebsite.com/SiteName/Pagename.html
    but you can't have
    http://web.me.com/SiteName/Pagename.html

  • Iweb page link to site

    Can I set a page from iweb to go to a web site?

    You can create a link from your site to another site yes.
    Type your text and then highlight it and then open the Inspector and choose Hyperlink and then choose Hyperlink to an external page and you have created your link to a site outside iWeb.

  • Trouble getting range expander to complete site survey

    I was able to connect my Wireless G range expander to my router with WEP disabled. When I tried to get the expander to see my router with WEB enabled, the setup wizard site survey keeps failing. Any suggestions?

    Fixed the problem by calling the 800# tech support.  Although slow, the guy walked me thru it.  I am connected but I do not see any improvement in the signal?  I have read thru the enitre postings and have a few things to try....any other suggestions?  The Router and Range Expander are on the same level and only  20ft apart and the desktop is around the corner another 8 feet.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

  • Trouble getting InDesign pages into iPhoto

    For years I have been designing iPhoto book pages in Adobe InDesign CS3 and using the "Save PDF to iPhoto" option in the printer dialog box to export them to iPhoto. I might add that as an interim step, once I select that option, the page goes through an automator work flow that first changes the PDF to a JPEG image and then exports it to iPhoto. In changing the PDF to a JPEG, I maximize the resolution to 300dpi in the Automator settings and I get really good results. However, that was when I used OS10.4. I now have OS10.6 and because of some security enhancements, the "Save PDF to iPhoto" option is no longer supported with InDesign. Adobe recommends a workaround as follows: Export the InDesign page to the desktop as a PDF and open that up using Preview. Then, you can access the "Save PDF to iPhoto" option in Preview's print dialog box. This works fine with one big exception. The PDF bypasses the Automator workflow and goes directly to iPhoto minus the important resolution enhancements that Automator previously provided. I have no idea why it would do this. Any suggestions as to how I can assure the PDF accesses the Automator workflow before en Thanks.

    Make an Automator workflow to do the transition to Jpeg yourself?

  • IWeb Not Finding My Site After Re-Install

    Hi guys,
    I've had to re-install OSX on my Macbook. I backed up my iWeb website before I did this and put it back where I found it.
    When I open iWeb now it just prompts me to start a new site.
    How do I get the old iweb site back into iweb??
    Thanks
    Steve

    So even though I backed up all the html files, pictures etc of the site I created in iWeb, they're now useless to me because I didn't back up this one file?
    There's no way to get iWeb to recognise the site it created anymore?
    That seems crazy! I used iWeb to keep my life simple but I think I'm better sticking to manual webpage creation in future.

  • Have published iweb site for five years with no problems and just opened a new site and get - 404: Page not found  This error is generated when there was no web page with the name you specified at the web site.-is the problem with iweb or with hosting?  T

    I am sorry if thie is republished-My first time doing this and I am not sure what goes where and where to hear feedback.
    Have published iweb site for five years with no problems and just opened a new site and get -
    404: Page not found 
    This error is generated when there was no web page with the name you specified at the web site.-
    Troubleshooting suggestions:
    Ensure the page you are linking to exists in the correct folder.
    Check your file name for case sensitivity . Index.htm is not the same as index.htm!
    Temporarily disable any rewrite rules by renaming your .htaccess file if it exists

    Any help would be extremely appreciated as trying to fix this for about five weeks
    Thanks VG
    <Email Edited by Host>

    It's a really bad idea to post your email address - it's an invitation to spam - and I've asked the Hosts to remove it. (Even though I've now noticed you mis-spelled it! - anyway, never post your address in a forum.)
    You have a site here: http://virginiagordon.com/www.virginiagordon.com/WELCOME.html
    If that's not the page you are having trouble with, what is that page's URL?

    Hi roddy,
    thanks for responding. I read your link, looked at my settings and they were all correct. I tried to do a republish and got this message: The requested URL /childrenandcaring/index.html was not found on this server.
    When I type the address in the address bar, I go to the site and the page says: This is the new site childrenandcaring.com
    Any other ideas?

  • My website- created on iWeb (Mac) now uploaded to hosting site, does not show content on 4 pages of photos, though Safari shows everything. ???

    All the photos were saved on jpeg format. You can see the text on each page of concern, but not the photos. I have added music to each page of concern with a button to manipulate on/off, and pasted jpeg photos to them which you can see, and music plays with no problem. I re-built the site and uploaded again to hosting site, and am having same problem. Safari shows all pages, text, jpeg photos/music without any problem. So I have a site of 6 pages, and only 2 are completely loadable with Firefox. I have made all updates that have come from Firefox. My Mac is OS X version 10.5.8

    Make sure that you use the latest version of the iWeb software to generate the galleries. Older versions of iWeb had problems in current Firefox versions.
