Adding existing files

To add files from other locations to your site, you can manually move the files into the site folder on the desktop and update the site window, or you can import or drag the files into the Files tab in the site window to have GoLive make a copy of them in the site folder and leave the original files untouched.

Note: When you create a new page, GoLive automatically adds a meta element that defines the character encoding for text to the head section of the page. If a page does not contain the element, GoLive displays a dialog box when you open the page so you can temporarily use the default encoding. To set the character encoding for the page, you can use the Encode icon in the Head set in the Objects palette. (See Adding elements or scripts to the head section.)

To add an existing file to a site:

Do one of the following:

• Drag the file from your desktop into the Files tab in the site window.
• Move the file into the site's root folder on your desktop. Then select the site window and click the Refresh View button  in the toolbar.
• Select the Files tab in the site window. Then choose File > Import > Files to Site. In the dialog box, locate and select the desired file, click Add, and click Done. If prompted, click OK to copy the file and update the site.
