Hello

I have heard that there is a limit to the number of files
that FP2002 (that I am using) can handle successfully.
Is this true?
What is the number of files?
Does it refer to html files only or html and others (e.g.
jpgs)?

I have a website, devided to 5 subwebs, that has about
4500 files (htm+jpgs&gifs) and I want to know if there
might be a problem when the file number increases.
Up to what number of files can we go?
So far, we've had no problems.

I appreciate your help.

If there is one, it would be the Windows limit
of 9,999 that can be shown in a Windows Explorer window
 
Thanks Steve, but I don't think they meant that.

They were talking about 1000-2000 files only.

Any ideas?
Anyone?

Make sure the extensions are configured to handle a large number of pages.
Under Windows IIS, this is set under the IIS MMC.

Also consider breaking the web into small subwebs.

Lina,

I had a web site (grew over the course of 5-6 years) in FP 98 then 2000
.... we had, as I recall about 30-40,000 files. All static pages. With a
central CSS style sheet at the root level. These were divided into
proably 20 folders off the root, and then untold number of subfolders
under that. Never noticed any problems.
