I updated a few lines of text in my website in VSD on my local computer. Everything looked fine.
I FTP to my server and there are a bunch of errors when I view my pages on the web.
A few images look smeared. Some links dont work. some images are replaced by the wrong image.

But in my _website files and .vnu files everything looks great, all the links work, etc.
I tried deleting all files from the server and re-uploading. No luck- all the same errors.
What am I missing?
Thanks for any help, Steve C.

Try going to the Publish Menu and select Re-Sync website. This should clear all these issues up for you.

Hi-
I tried re-sync website but I got a bunch of error windows that said ...xml was not found, .php was not found, my upload form .swf' was not found, etc. All the files having to do with my 'contact us' form.

VSD is in my firewall exceptions list. My FTP address and all those settings are OK.

All these files that "was not found" are there in my website files on my machine, and as I say the website
works great on my local machine.

I re-saved the page with the contact form but that didn't help. What else should I try?
Thanks for any help, Steve C.

Those types of errors mean you moved some files around OUTSIDE of VSD, so it cannot find them. The easiest way to fix this is to remove all your Flash Objects by using the Remove Flash object and then go to the Edit Menu > Remove Files and clear out the bad files. After you do that, you can re-add the Flash object.
