personally, I don't get the need for this 'import files into web' thing with
Frontpage - I mean, all you're doing is linking files in a text file essentially,
using a tool that has a GUI to do it.

If you coded in notepad all you'd do would be to put your full urls (or relative
urls) and so on in your hrefs and img src tags and it wouldn't matter about the
file://.... problem, since if you uploaded the directories and so on to match
the structure on your hard disk, they'd work as on the local drive.
