    A while back I created a website with FrontPage. It's a large site with over 300 pages and 2,000 images. Now I am moving it to Expression Web. I imported it to Expression Web 3 from a backup CD, then published it to my hard drive via FTP. Following that, I updated some of the pages with Expression Web, then attempted to publish it to my host's server via FTP (local to remote). The publishing process seemed to proceed OK and the small box with the revolving arrow appeared, but nothing appeared in the Status box at the bottom of the screen, and no Completed message ever appeared. Since it's a large site, I allowed the publishing process to proceed for about 3 hours, then finally gave up and canceled it. Next I checked the site online, and it appeared to be complete, included the various page updates I had made with Expression Web. So my questions are: (1) Why did no information appear in the Status box while the publishing process proceeded? And (2) Why did I never get a Completed message, and why did the box with the revolving arrow never closed? Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated... DC (Fort Lauderdale, Florida)
