Uploading Files to the Remote Server


There are several methods for uploading your files to your remote server.
Expand the Site panel out a little bit more so you can see the full panel.
There are a series of icons above the files Files panel the far right one is the Expand icon.  
Click that.
  

This is what comes up.



Connect to your remote server by clicking.
This can be found on the left panel. It can also be found in the files panel. 






  


The left pane is the live site and right pane is the local site.
.
There are a couple different ways upload to the remote site or to download from it to the local site.

First, select a file or series of files, and click   



The down arrow gets files from the remote server and the up arrow sents files to the remote server.
Anytime you upload or download a file, Dreamweaver is going to ask if you want to get any of the dependent files. Dependent files would be files that are linked to the page such as CSS files or images, script. etc.
Sometimes you want the dependent files to upload or download, and sometimes you don't. Moving your files to and from the remote and local site makes it easy to maintain your files and keep your pages current.
