ya know, i hear that a lot. &nbsp;i like webdav but it always gives me so much grief that i end up going with ftp. &nbsp;I'll read the above link and see where my problem may lie.
</div>


<div>
Without seeing your site definitions or server config, my guess is going to be a specific port declaration is the issue (at least that's the most common DW gotcha with WebDav).
</div>


<div>
well, the web site is on port 80 and I've made no special changes. &nbsp;everything is a default install
</div>


<div>
:) &nbsp;Read the document I linked to...
</div>


<div>
ok, that's just retarded! &nbsp;webdav should be simpler.<br />
I'm going to publish with ftp.
</div>


<div>
LOL. &nbsp;Yeah, FTP/SFTP is fairly well supported in Dreamweaver but they really make you jump through hoops to publish with webdav. &nbsp;Sorry to be the bearer of the bad news.
</div>


<div>
not so much bad news...more disappointment. &nbsp;i mean if you're gonna come out with the next greatest thing, at least make it work and make it easier than the same ole thing you're replacing.<br />
<br />
i'm just sayin...
