Re: Migrating a site from GoLive to Dreamweaver MX?

Thanks, I was hoping to hear that I was going blind and someone knew of the
illusive creature but alas you may be correct. You'd think Macromedia
would've had an article written by now on the subject. It's a shame really,
I've heard a few GoLive users are talking about migrating. Oh well if any
does know of such information my ears are will open!

Thanks
Brian

There isnt one as far as i know. Best thing may be to recreate the pages in

Hello,

Does anyone know of a detailed article/tutorial that shows one how to
migrate a site made in GoLive over to Dreamweaver? I've searched
Macromedia's Dreamweaver articles and came up empty handed.

Hi Brian,

I once had to migrate over a GoLive site to Dreamweaver. It was not dynamic
at the time, but did have a fairly extensive javascripted navigation system.
I was able to define a new site and then set the folder that the GoLive site
was in as the Local Root Folder just like I would any other site, and was
able to bring up the site in Dreamweaver just fine. No migration problems at
all. You might try that and see what happens.

Kind Regards,
