I've done this before... basically this is what I did: Look at your current website or what you desire to have i.e. the overall design of a Top of Page, Footer, Menus etc. Build a module for each. Design a framwork with which to build each content page. You will need to handle the "Item 10 of 25" problem i.e. pagenation... not hard - just tedious to stay on top of. VFP spits out HTML code just fine - to the Fox it's just all text anyways... When you 'push the button' your program just does something like this: do Main_Page_Top do Main_Page_Menu do Page_Surreal do Page_Geometry etc... do Main_Page_Footer I did an entire inventory control system this way... The FTP upload isn't a big deal either.... you might want to have your code check the existing site contents so you don't waste time/bandwidth uploading the same images over and over...
