BBEdit projects are just collections of local files. The only SFTP tools BBEdit 
Projects have are for deploying your local copy of a website to a remote server 
- see pg 217 of the User Manual. Working directly with remote files inside a 
project would be better/easier with something like Coda <panic.com>.

Personally, I very much enjoy having a local copy of by site on my laptop that 
I can edit and test any time, then once everything is worked-out I just deploy 
the changes to the live server. There are a lot (and I mean a lot) of great 
tools for this kind of workflow. If you need help setting this up I can point 
you in the right direction.
