In your ebook, you say, "2) Whenever the instructions tell you to upload something to the root of your server drop the files into Macintosh HD." Where do they go when you do this? How do I keep track of them once they are "dropped"? Later I have to upload them to my online server, so I need them. Can I put them into Macintosh HD into a particular folder that I name something like "ServerUploads"?

Thanks. The ebook is awesome. I'm just getting started with it, but I've browsed a bit and it is going to be an enormous help!

Hi,

to keep track of which files were added to the Macintosh HD file either
- take note of the files which are in there now then compare it with the files which will be there the day you upload to your server
- open Macintosh HD, go to View, Show View Options, check "Date Added" box for you to see which files have been added lately

But of course you may also add a folder ServerUploads. Just keep in mind that by doing so you will have to adapt the filepath to reflect that. So instead of
/image.png
you'd have to use
/ServerUploads/image.png
in the code. Then either upload the entire ServerUploads folder to your server or adapt the paths once you upload to the server. I may recommend you to upload the entire ServerUploads folder in that case to avoid changing all the paths. The good thing is that keeps you from entering the password every time you put something into it.

Hope it helped,
Cédric
