This seems a better way for iDisk and 1Password.html

<div class="IPBDescription">A different way of using iDisk and 1Password.html, I think</div>I have setup a iWeb site to use with the 1Password.html and agilekeychain package.



The site is published with a blank page. This is needed just to get the site going.



The site is published as a private site using iWeb, and needs a password to get into it.





Once Published, I then connected to my iDisk with Transmit (ftp app) and navigated to the folder that contains the site files.

Example: [i]/Web/Sites/[b]somePrivateStuff[/b][/i]



The site name you give the site will be reflected in the folder name. i.e [b]somePrivateStuff[/b]



I then copied the [b]1Password.agilekeychain[/b] package over into the [b]somePrivateStuff[/b] folder.



Next I replaced the index.html inside the [b]somePrivateStuff[/b] folder, with one that redirected/refreshed to the [b]1Password.html[/b] inside the [b]1Password.agilekeychain[/b] package.



Example code:

[code]<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"><html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><head><title></title><meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url= http://www.myMainIwebPath/somePrivateStuff/1Password.agilekeychain/1Password.html" /></head><body></body></html>[/code]



That was it.. mostly







One thing to note, is iWeb will change your default home page to the last published site. So in my case I did not want my home page to be this new site.

The way I get around this is to use the same type of index change for the index.html file in the Site folder ( [i]/Web/Sites/[b] ) to go to what ever site I want as my home.





The benefits I can see from doing it this way is:



No need to download a copy of the package on any machine thats not yours.

And I also most likely can Automate a sync with transmit.



Does anyone have any Pros and Cons on this.



Thanks

MH.
