3. To safeguard your site, check the Backup the document to the<br />

remote server option. If the site is unsaved you'll be prompted to<br />

save it.<br />

4. Click OK to begin the upload process. (Now is the time to get that cup<br />

of tea...)<br />

5. Once the upload is complete, the Uploading files dialog will remain on<br />

screen until you click Close.<br />

6. From the drop-down menu in the Website Publishing dialog, select the<br />

browser in which you wish to view your live site and click View this<br />

URL. You will now be able to view your live site.<br />

Trouble Shooting<br />

After publishing your website, you may find that some changes are missing.<br />

Before you attempt to do another upload, try clearing the cache on your browser.<br />

To clear the cache, press Ctrl+F5. This will often cure any problems relating to<br />

the display of images and other objects.<br />

If clearing the cache doesn't resolve the problems, you may need to manually<br />

delete old image files or objects. See Maintaining your website in online Help<br />

for details on how to do this.<br />

Viewing your published site<br />

Once your site has been published, you have the option to View Site<br />

Online on the Standard toolbar. This displays your site in its most recently<br />

published state in the default web browser. The first time View site online is<br />

used, a dialog pops up asking for the default site URL. This can be amended<br />

later using the Site Properties... dialog.<br />

It is important to remember that any changes made since publishing will<br />

not be reflected. To see unpublished changes, use the Preview site button. (See<br />

Previewing your site on p. 289.)<br />

<strong>Serif</strong> provides competitively priced web hosting that offers various levels of<br />

Hooray! Your file is uploaded and ready to be published.
