There are two basic ways to edit a web in FP. One way (remote) is for FP to
connect directly to the web files on the server - the exact same files that
users see when they visit your web page. When you open a page it is
downloaded from the server and opened in FP. After you make changes, saving
the file writes it to the server. The other way is to keep a local copy of
the web on your hard drive. You are editing the local files, not the files
on the server. When finished you must publish the web, which copies new and
changed files from your hard disk to the server.
