I want to get some clarification for FP 2002's publish function. The four
options I see are: 1. Changed pages only 2. All pages, overwriting pages
already on destination 3. Determine changes by comparing source and
destination webs 3. Use source file timestamps to determine changes since
last publish. I'm asking because we are in the process of developing
sub-webs.

I don't mean to be nit-picky but what exactly is FP"s definition of a
Changed Page? Would that include a page where the file path has been
changed? A graphic? Maybe a typo is found after an upload and the page needs
to be republished. Which of these would count as a Changed Page?

When All Pages is chosen, how does that effect sub-webs? I'm worried that we
could inadvertently overwrite a sub-web that we don't mean to.

Finally, what is the difference in using source and destination webs and
source file timestamps when making the comparison?

Thanks very much for any clarification. I have been wondering about the
options
for a long time but they are just now about to become a part of my
responsibility.
 
Thank you Stefan. You made points I did not know before.

Changes - all of the above - any change, no matter how minor are considered
changes.

Subwebs are not normally updated unless they are part of the original web
structure.
