Mathew, Thank you also for your Input. Something you wrote below also brought up a comment I wanted to make earlier.
In the past, I created a basic website to show off some of my own stuff - 3D renderings as well as some of my VR work and some of the classes I taught. However, at that point in time - I had based my website around having a Frame - and within that frame I would have it display the various webpages. While my menu was in a separate frame on the left side. But - I have heard in the past that this idea of Frames is a BAD idea - in regards to Google. IT was claimed that Google cant properly scan your website to include in its Index if you use Frames. Is this still true??? Now - to respond to what you wrote below. I'm not sure about something. Are you saying that EVERY webpage is generated this way? That every webpage is this main top image, and the menu, then the main content, then the webpage footer? Such that EVERY webpage has the same top, menu & bottom content? Because, I just figured that it would make it slow to re-draw webpages - since you are redrawing ALL of the webpage each time instead of just the updated main content on each webpage! Does my question make sense?

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...
