Page Doesn't Upload Anything Like it Looked when Previewed
Hi,
I'm working of a redo of my website using Dreamweaver. I am also using a template from Dreamweaver. I've been previewing the pages all along in both Firefox and IE. They were looking really sharp. This morning I finally uploaded them using FTP.
The home page (index) looks awful!! Nothing is formatted right or in the correct place. Nothing is in a column. And none of the links work! I tested them several times beforehand. This home page is unusable. What can be the difference between what the previewed page looks like and what you see when you upload it? Can anyone help me?

Hi Jason,
Oh, that is really very funny! I thought I could remain anonymous on here. :)
I see there is definitely something wrong with the stylesheet path. But I'm not really familiar with stylesheets (hence the template), so I don't know what the path is supposed to be!
The laptop photo path is minor. I can probably fix that in a second. I think it's the stylesheet path that's really causing me problems. Can you tell me how to figure out what it should be? I really appreciate your help. I'm stumped.

No need for that, but get my address from my profile. If you ever want to grab a coffee and talk shop, I'd love to meet you in person.

After all that I forgot to give you your points!
Coffee and shop talk sounds good. Let's talk soon. Have a good day.

Sounds good. Good luck with the site and the consulting.
I see your flyers all over the place in Santa Monica :) I guess I get to tutor the tutor!
It looks to me like your external stylesheet file didn't upload or is in the wrong path. From the link above I see this:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="../karathecomputertu
Is 3colleftNav.css in a subfolder /karathecomputertutor4.1 on the site or do you have the site definitions set up incorrectly?
Looks like the same issue for this image call:
