Layout messed up when site saved to folder (& other issues)

I've saved my site to folder, and the following issues are noticeable now:

1) the template layout (Notebook template) has badly changed, particularly the columns width is broken (columns lines pass through content like pictures.

2) the site isn't password protected anymore

3) subscribe to rss feeds end up with an error (file not found, notably rss.xml, whereas it's exactly where it should be in the folder or on the server when uploaded to FTP).

Thanks for helping!!

When you publish to a folder you will lose these features:

Features Unavailable When Publishing to a non-Mac Server:

◼ Password protection

◼ Blog and photo comments

◼ Blog search

◼ Hit counter

◼ Enhanced slideshows

Try the following as a first fix attempt: close iWeb, delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple. iWeb.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder, launch iWeb and try again.

What I have noticed is that when I publish to a folder and view the contents there, the formatting is sometimes messed up. However, once I put it on my web server and view it from there, the formatting is correct. So, try to upload it and see if the formatting is still incorrect.
