I originally replied to Randys message off-list, however it wanted me to jump through various Earthlink hoops to reply. It was too much effort to do so (fill in ELink Allow Sender Form, resend message, etc). I'm in a bit of a hurry, so I now send the message on-list, as I assume that he will see it here. I apologise for this non-CSS related message; additionally, perhaps on the email address that one uses for mailing lists, one could deactivate such annoyances? Regards, Rahul. -x-x- My original reply follows: Hi Randy: Would be happy to help you out for free. What do you need to do precisely? I'm assuming that you want to download all the files from the site, and then work on them on your local machine? I've used this program called HTTracker, which is available as a free download. It downloads entire websites - and all linked files - very useful! The first thing I suggest you do is to get Firefox, which allows you to work more efficiently on webpages, as well as making the source-code more human-readable. It also has excellent tools for tracking CSS, and how the page "fits" together. http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/ This extension, the Web Developer Toolbar has been invaluable to me, lets you turn styles off, check the various elements, validate your HTML/CSS...the list is too long for this email. https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?application=firefox&category=Developer%20Tools&numpg=10&id=60 What I have done for you is to download all the files necessary, zipped them up, and uploaded them to an FTP server [1]. You can download and look through all of this. Once you unzip the files, what you need to do is to go into Dreamweaver. Site > New Site Enter all the details that you need. Then, supposing you have specified "E:\Websites\Critters" as your site base, copy all those files to that folder. Press Reload on the Sites Panel, and you should see all the files, the HTML, CSS and Javascript necessary. Hope this helps! Regards, Rahul. (From Bangalore, otherwise I'd give you a number to call!)
