Here is the text of the reply I made to the same post on the FW group -
How on earth did you get that page that way? 8(
There are problems throughout.
1. There is not a doctype on the page as there usually is in new pages
created by DMX (even though it's incorrect).
2. The page *should* be a Template page, (<!-- TemplateParam name="main1"
type="boolean" value="true" -->), yet it has an html extension. That's
wrong. You must have just saved a Template page with the HTML extension,
which is going to be big trouble, but the other errors on the page are not
even consistent with having done this!
3. There is not an Editable region around the <title> tag, or in the head,
as there usually is in DMX Templates.
4. You have mixed root relative - <img name="fwmain_r1_c1"
src="/mfh/fwmain_r1_c1.gif" - with document relative links - <img
name="fwmain_r2_c1" src="fwmain_r2_c1.gif". Just use document relative for
everything.
5. Your document relative links are suggesting that the images are in the
Templates folder, and that's wrong. There should be nothing in the
Templates folder other than the Template files themselves.
6. I counted 11 rowspan attributes, and 4 colspan attributes. This makes a
very complex table, that is almost guaranteed to give problems in
browser/platform rendering when your table content is not exactly the same
size as the way it was when the HTML code was written by FW (<!-- fwtable
fwsrc="main.png" fwbase="fwmain.gif" fwstyle="Dreamweaver" fwdocid =
"742308039" fwnested="0" -->). This is why many of the regulars on the DW
forum recommend that you not use FW to write your HTML, but that you learn
how to build stable tables instead and do it all in DW.
If you a) read the F1 help files about how to use Templates, and 2) fix
these issues, then I'll show you how to edit your image sources.....

using what i made in FW as a template in DW. So i go to upload my
Index1.htm file i created as my Home Page of my site. I test it but the
pictures dont work on the website(except the ones i changed the source in

really need to know how to do is change the File Source for the
disjoint-roll over images, using either DW or FW from ' c:/webpage ' to my
webpage server ip
