7. Update the external link.
Select the Adobe URL in the External tab of the site window. Type
http://www.adobe.com/products/golive/main.html in the URL box of the External Inspector, and then press Enter
(Windows) or Return (Mac OS). GoLive displays the Change Reference dialog box, which lists the page that serves
as the source of the link, and prompts you to update the file. Click OK to update the reference.
GoLive provides other tools for updating internal and external links. For example, to edit links sitewide, use the In
& Out Links palette or the Change References dialog box (see "Changing all site URLs or links at once" on page 232).
Publish a site
Before visitors can view your website, you need to transfer it to a publish server (a server that hosts your site files,
such as an FTP server). This tutorial demonstrates how to use GoLive to transfer your site files to a publish server
for the first time. Before you start this tutorial, contact your Internet service provider (ISP) to determine the settings
you'll need to access the publish server, including the publish server address, the server's protocol, the location of
your directory on the publish server, and your user name and password.
GoLive makes it easy to transfer your site to a publish server with the Publish Server tab in the site window. Once
you've transferred a site, updating it is easy using modified-item uploads and synchronized uploads. GoLive takes
the guesswork out of determining which files need updating by comparing the modification dates of local files with
those on the server.
1. Configure a publish server.
Open a site and choose Site > Publish Server > Set Up Server (if you've already set up a server for a site, choose Site >
Publish Server > Settings). Click the New Server button in the Site Settings dialog box and type an easily recognizable
nickname for your server in the Nickname box (nicknames prevent confusion if you add more than one server to the
list). Choose a protocol from the Protocol menu and fill in the Server, Directory, Username, and Password boxes
based on the publish server information you obtained from your ISP; then click OK. (Click Advanced to configure
advanced FTP options, such as security.)
