Define site:

1. Create a folder that will contain all your files.
   1. Mirror the remote site.
   2. Defining the site structure helps you to maintain the same folder hierarchy between the local and remote versions.
   3. Files outside of your local site will not be accessible to your local root directory.
   4. The links to the files in your local root directory will be relative to the root folder.
      1. If you don't create the local root directory, you will have problems with links, paths, and file management.

   Refer to Dreamweaver MX book starting on page 15 to setup your site.
