aaargh...please pretend I am a 4 yr old when you explain this to me.

I want to import my buddies web site (about 4 pages) off the web. I used to use Frontpage and it had a simple importing interface that allowed you to download whole websites pronto off the web. Just type in the http address and voila...
why can't I find it on MX Dreamweaver? please, can some show me how...DW MX is better that frontpage right!?


I tried the sites menu in DW mx and attempted editing it thru there but no luck....??

in dreamweaver click site then new site, click the advanced tab and set-up the local (i.e. where you want the files to be stored on ur machine). then click remote info and choose ftp and put in all of the required ftp details then click ok. now on the right hand side their should be a section that says files. click on the site you have just created and click the down arrow, all been well dmx should connect to the remote server and dl the files. if not go to tucows and do a search for website grabbing tools.
