I just copy over everything, e.g. on UNIX: cp -Rf build/site/* ../../forrest-site In that way i don't miss any new or updated files. Actually before i do the copy, i check the differences diff -rq build/site ./../forrest-site which also reveals any files that should be deleted from the published site. -David > Let test the update option and I'll get back to you. > > Thanks. > > ******************************************** > Sean Hower - tech writer > http://hokum.freehomepage.com
