Deleting unnecessary files in the server
With the file transfer program, a folder can be move by double-clicking the folder icon on the file list. In the combo box placed above the list, all history of the folder up to the present is recorded. By just selecting the folder, the folder can be jumped quickly. A folder can be move as well by entering the folder name in the box and pressing the [Enter] key.
Folder synchronization does not work when a folder is to be moved with the method other than the above.
Deleting unnecessary files in the server
As you continue creating homepages, you may have unnecessary files in PCs and servers. It is better to delete these files. Unnecessary files in the PC can be found and deleted with the "File" tab in the site information of the Homepage Builder. Combining this function with the file transfer program, unnecessary files in the server can be found and deleted. The following describes how to do it:
1. Start Homepage Builder and find unnecessary files in the PC by viewing "Unused Files" in the "File" pane. Delete the files after confirming if those files are really unnecessary.
2. Start the file transfer program and display the folder of the PC and the server's folder that is associated with PC's folder.
3. Right-click the file list in the server to display the shortcut menu.
4. Select [List Files Not on the PC].
In this way, unused files (would-be) can be found in the file list of the server.
Be sure to confirm if it is really unused before deleting a file.
The files displayed in the [Not Saved Document List] are possibly unused files.
Note when you delete files that CGI files or files in the script may be displayed as unused files since they cannot be detected.
Selecting file names form the file list of the PC, you can drag and drop them with the right button of the mouse. If you drop a file into the list of the server, it is possible to upload this file. You can drop onto desktop PCs as well. Dragging and dropping from the server is not supported.
In the combo box in which both folders of the PC and the server are displayed, files can be displayed by using the wildcard such as "*.gif" (only * can be used for the search).
Example of search with the PC:
Enter "C:\homepage\*.jpg" and press the [Enter] key.
JPEG files included in the folder C:\homepage are listed up. If no file is found, blank will be displayed.
Example of search with the server:
Enter "/home/foo/public_html/img/*.jpg" and press the [Enter] key.
JPG files included in the folder "/home/foo/public_html/img" will be displayed. If no file is found, blank will be displayed.
By pressing the [F5] key, normal display can be restored for both PCs and the server.
