This works with many browsers.  I use Internet Explorer, which does support FTP Drag-n-Drop. 

If you have problems, make sure that your Internet Options are set to allow FTP transfer. (In IE - Select Tools / Internet Options / Advanced and turn on "Enable folder view for FTP sites")

NOTE:  If you are using AOL's web accelerator (Top Speed), turn it off before trying to connect via ftp.  Accelerators work by preventing transfers of large files and if your site includes some larger files (like many image files), it could prevent your connection via ftp.

1.  Open Windows Explorer and navigate to find where you saved your web.  Re-size the window to one side of the screen.
      

2.  Open your browser.  Type ftp://users.freepages.rootsweb.com/ in the address window and press Enter.

3.  The following window will appear.  Type in your RootsWeb UserID and password EXACTLY as sent to you in the "Welcome" letter and press "Log On".  (Remember it's case sensitive.)

NOTE:  If your browser won't allow you to access that way, try inserting the userID and password directly into the FTP address.  Some browsers will allow you to do it this way instead -
ftp://username:password@users.freepages.rootsweb.com/genealogy_html/  where you input your username and password directly into the places indicated in the URL.

4.  Your RootsWeb space will appear in the browser window.  Re-size the window to one side of the screen so that you can view both the Windows Explorer and browser windows side-by-side.

5.  Pre-built into each FreePages space are the available community folders.  DO NOT delete these.  In fact, do not rename or move them either.  Leave them completely as they are.   If you change or delete the basic community folders, you will have problems accessing your account in the future.

6.  In the RootsWeb window, double-click on the community you want to publish to (genealogy_html, family_html, misc_html, etc.).  Once that folder is open, you can begin to drag and drop files and folders from the Windows Explorer window into the RootsWeb window.  Your files will remain on your computer, but will be copied onto RootsWeb.

7.  When you've finished dragging everything to RootsWeb, you're done.  Congratulations! Your web is published.

NOTE:  This Drag-n-Drop method also works in reverse.  If your computer ever crashes and you lose the copy of your web on your computer or a backup copy, you can drag-n-drop it FROM Rootsweb back TO your computer.
