I think the red line around the box means that the resource is not recognized. If I start adding files that are going to be linked together inside the project, some of those links will not exist until I create them. Let me give an example. Let's say that what I was creating was just foaf files for a number of people that will be linked together. I thought that the file would need to be foaf.rdf or foaf.n3 or foaf.ttl. Unfortunately, a project can only have one file with the same name. I don't think it will even let me create a project that uses the same name in it. For example, when I created the project with name PersonalProfiles, and then create a file inside that, it uses for a web uri, http://personalprofles.fwwebdev.com/filename. So, even if I tried to put each person into a different project, I'd have to name the project differently each time. Which I guess would work. Maybe I could create my foaf at http://BruceWhealtonJr.fwwebdev.com/foaf.rdf and my friends foaf in a project named JeanJones which will be inside http://JeanJones.fwwebdev.com/foaf.rdf That seems doable, or I can have each person's foaf file match their name. If we are working with FOAF, do they care if the file is named foaf or dooes it matter? I'm not sure which is the best practice. But in reference to thee earlier issue: 1) Do I need to export? or is that only if I want it in a different format for the rdf than the format that is created as I work? If so, it seems that it is putting the foaf.rdf file in one folder above the one where the working foaf.ttl file exists. I guess I can type in the full path during export. Yes, that worked. I put those both here: http://personalprofiles.fwwebdev.com/BruceWhealtonJr/foaf.rdf and the same with foaf.ttl instead of foaf.rdf 2) Ok, now when I want to create Jean's foaf file, it doesn't let me use the name foaf for the file. An ideal naming scheme is to have his profile here: http://personalprofiles.fwwebdev.com/JeanArthurJones/foaf.rdf because in my foaf file I refer to him by that uri http://personalprofiles.fwwebdev.com/JeanArthurJones/foaf.rdf#me as in http://personalprofiles.fwwebdev.com/BruceWhealtonJr/foaf.rdf#me foaf:knows http://personalprofiles.fwwebdev.com/JeanArthurJones/foaf.rdf#me I coudl work with a file that has a different name and export it to foaf in the proper location but the software will continue to tell me the resource doesn't exist. Or if I reference it with a different file name than the one I saved it with then the links won't work, will they? Thanks, Bruce
