Saving directly in Dreamweaver

[dawumyster]

Hey, I was wondering if there is any way for Dreamweaver to save directly to the web server. Right now, I have a FTP link under "My Network Places" in explorer, but all the files are "read only" (according to Dreamweaver). Right-clicking on the files reveal that the Owner is able to read and write the file. Currently, I would have to copy the desired page onto my hard drive before opening it with Dreamweaver, make the changes, save, and then re-upload the updated page onto the server.

~Thanks

Yer, there is a way to do it

ill create a webpage containing screenshots to show you how!

Be warned though:
I am using Dreamweaver MX 8, but it should be the same in all versions of dreamweaver

Thanks! I'm still getting an error though: "cannot make connection to host. The remote host cannot be found"

I'm using Dreamweaver version 8.0.1

Set your FTP host to your x10 subdomain only (take out the ftp://dawuster@ )
EX: dawuster.x10hosting.com
