I made a site for friends. They want to see it and I made a copy of it and saved on my usb key. Opening a page on their pc nothing happens; only the background is visible. So I tried to open another page, but result is the same. Why?We tried with IE 8.0 and with Firefox latest version but it still the same result. In both cases the platform is windows.
Is there something I don't know or something I did wrong?

First of all, thanks again Chris.
So, if I have undertood well, it is like the ASP... I can't see if I don't publish and I must work online. Is it right?

To me is bad, 'cause they want to see  before publish, also 'cause they already have a site and are afraid something could happens destroying the old site or damaging it...

(There are no pages in PHP here, only some css and some java, but all very simple).

Good day to you too... ;-)

Now I'm on another computer (Linux) and I can't see on my pc windows, but I have their 2800+ AMD laptop, and I've installed on it openelement, and moved a copy of entire project folder on it... same problem.  This laptop doesn't have any line or wifi connection but as you said it should work. Why it does not?
Steps: (Also this laptop uses windows XP pro...)
1) made a copy of entire project folder and moved on this laptop
2) installed openelement on it
3) launch the program but it can't find any connection to the web 'cause it can't connect (no wifi or other line) so it said "error of connection" ...

As you said it should see the project and in effect it opens pages only if I use openelement, but when I try to open the page with the preview button, Firefox starts and the same problem happens. Only background is visible, nothing other.

I now tried to export as you suggested, but it does the same. [Note that I am not using an internet connection.]
Does openelement needs a connection also here? As I told those friends are afraid something could happens on their actual site... and they don't want transform it in a "slave site"... this is a clean laptop (formatted yesterday) and followed instructions as you said, but it doesn't work again...

Yes, I already did it and saved all in the original project, but it looks as something went wrong 'cause of that problem.
This afternoon I'll try to repeat all and make a new site-project. Let's see what will happens...

Can it be done 'cause I changed original pictures, deleted some of them and made the all to my needs? (I have used the ArtDeco_Argent template).

Always thanks Chirs, and have a good day

Thanks for inviting me to send you the project, but I'm a little "hard head" and I like to understand what happens.
So now I found something: that template comes with 2 layers; one is black(1) and the other is browny(2). When I launch the homepage (in OE) and try to do something, it opens the layer wth browny but this layers goes to open the 1st layer with black bg; note that the homepage in itself has the browny bg...

I now deleted the first layer 'cause it is with black bg, but the project (in homepage) itself comes with browny bg. I renamed the 2nd layer as 1st; it gaves errors but accepted the change. Saved all and close. I'll try later 'cause here is time to go to eat... :-)

We'll see later what happens, but I think it is at this moment done and should work correctly. I'll let you know after made necessary changes as needed.

Thanks again for help
