Please could you give me  step by step advice on how to export my website .html files  to a third party domain name and hosting service. I have already published my site several times through Magix (as stated I needed to do in other questions) but still the program will not let me use the "export" button, when I click on it nothing happens.

Many thanks for your help.

Kind regards,

Surfer 007

When you click the "export" button a window should open, showing you some HTML code. Copy it to your clipboard.

Then you must start a new HTML document with the basic page <head> informations in a text or HTML editor.

See for example http://www.htmlcodetutorial.com/document/_HEAD.html or http://www.htmlquick.com/tutorials/document-structure.html

In the <body> section of the html document goes the code you copied from the export. 

Save the HTML document as index.html

Connect to your server host.

Upload your html document using an FTP program such as FileZilla

This should be it.

Hi thanks for you answer, however no window seems to open when I click export?!

 

Then you should check whether your browser has pop-ups deactivated. To make sure maybe try a different one or check your browser settings. Good luck.
