if you make sure site using the wizard: YOU hit the publish button THERE ONLY and ONLY IF YOU ARE USING THE WIZARD to make your pages
if you are using the file manager editors just save your pages and they are published
if you are using your own html program like notepad or something then use an ftp program
DON'T use the wizard area to publish your pages UNLESS you have made the pages using the wizard.
Too many people here I am seeing make their pages with the file manager editors and then hit the publish button in the wizard editor and they just LOST all their work they just did because the wizard only works with what you did for your pages USING THE WIZARD only.
