Gail, I can not answer regarding the different page icons being displayed.

Once you have the local site open, you would just use File Menu | Publish Site to publish. All
changed page sure get published, unless you have marked them not to be published.

> Okay, I understand that, thank you.  However, once my folders/files come up under the local site,
isn't it correct that I have to double click the folder that has the updated pages in it?  And, if
that is correct, it brings up the updated pages with blue arrows to the left of each page.  What
does that mean?  Above the four pages are two folders (images and banners) without blue arrows, what
will happen to them when I hit publish?
