If I publish my website to my laptop and it was created on my desktop, how do
I make sure that changes made to the website show up on both computers?
 
If you created in on the desktop, and publish it to your laptop, it's then
the same on both computers.

Publish from Remote server to local machine(s) (or whatever is most current
copy) before working on it locally.
So...if you Publish from remote server to your laptop, make changes then
Publish back up to server, then when you want to work on Desktop make sure
you Publish from remote server to Desktop before you work on it.

I am trying to publish it and I can't figure out what the remote web site
location is suppose to be
 
If you have your local web open, the remote server address is that of your
website eg http://www.yoursite.com, or the FTP location (if you don't
publish using the server extensions - contact your host if unsure of the ftp
address). FTP address could be something along the lines of
ftp://ftp.yourwebsite.com


If you have the live site open, or are publishing by FTP to your computer,
the location is the folder where your web is located
eg "x:\pathtoyourwebsite\yourweb\" where "X" is your hard drive and
"pathtoyourwebsite\yourweb" is the location where you store your websites.

Hope that assists you.
 
I switched website host and have lost the command, edit with frontpage in the
dropdowm file. How do I get it back for my laptop and home computer?
 
where do I do that?

Before all I had to do was drop down from file to edit with Microsoft
Frontpage and it would open the site to edit on both computers. My laptop
did not have the files but I could edit with it. Now the only way I can edit
is to go directly to Frontpage ,than click on
folder to open a file to edit
