FTP - File Transfers: Dreamweaver MX
You can upload files to the server using Dreamweaver.
The following is a description of the steps used with Dreamweaver MX:

1: Select: Site ->New Site
This will put you in the "Advanced" window with "Local Info" open.

2: Enter these values:
--------------------------------
Site name:
Any name you chose, though to keep things straight, it's always best to give it a name corresponding with the site you want to manage.

Local root folder:
Where your files are stored on your computer.
DW usually fills this in for you and makes the directory.
--------------------------------

3: Select "Remote Info" in the left menu.
This will give you a dropdown menu.

4: Select "FTP", and enter these values:
--------------------------------
Access: FTP

FTP host: yourdomain.com
(replace "yourdomain.com" with your domain)

Host directory: mainwebsite_html
(type this exactly, so that your files go into the right directory)

Login: admin@yourdomain.com
(replace "yourdomain.com" with your domain)

Password: main password to your account

Use passive FTP: check this box

No other boxes need to be checked for the connection to work.
--------------------------------

5: Click "OK"
Your connection is now defined.

6: Click "Files" on the menu to the far right.

7: Click the "Connect to remote host" icon
(The icon looks like two plugs coming together)
