iWeb Publishing Whole Website...

Oh my word, every time I make a correction to my website it wants to upload the whole thing and NOT just the changes. What gives? I am running this under Mobile Me and it just started doing this BEFORE the update. Now that I have updated it... the thing continues to do this... Any thoughts as to why it has to publish the whole thing time and again rather then just the changes?

Thanks in advance... Jay

****PLEASE TRY THIS...IT MIGHT WORK *****
ok so i went into iweb and made a small change. I knew it was going to upload the whole website but i carved out a block of time so it could upload the whole thing. So i hit file and then upload changes and it starts to compile all the pages and not only the changes. I hit cancel because i wanted to change something else. Then i get the message that says my changes were uploaded to the site.

I checked online and it did upload only the changes.

Please try this. Make a small change. Click file -> upload changes. Then when it starts to compile all the pages hit cancel and wait to see if it uploads the changes?

I've been having the exact same problem and think that this worked for me:

I had my iWeb file in my Sites folder. I renamed it "Domain" and put it back in the /Library/Application Support/iWeb folder like the previous versions of iWeb required. I added an entirely new site to experiment on, and it seemed to update just the changes like it is supposed to.

I'll try publishing my actual giant site tonight and post again.
