Finding files in the Site window

You can search for a file in your local and remote sites from the Document window or the Site window. For more information on searching for and replacing files, see Searching and replacing text, tags, and attributes.

To display the Site window, choose Window > Site Files.

To find a file in your local site:

1	Select the file in the Remote Site view of the Site window or open the file in a Document window.
2	Choose Site > Locate in Local Site. (On Windows only, if the Site window is active, choose Edit > Locate in Local Site.)
	The file is highlighted in the Local Folder of the Site window.

To find a file in your remote site:

1	Select the file in the Local folder of the Site window or open the file in a Document window.
2	Choose Site > Locate in Remote Site. (On Windows only, if the Site window is active, choose Edit > Locate in Remote Site.) You can also select the file in the Local Folder and right-click (Windows) control-click (Macintosh) and choose Locate in Remote Site from the context menu.
	The file is highlighted in the Remote Site view of the Site window.

Note: If you select Site > Locate in Local Site or Site > Locate in Remote Site while the Document window is active, and if the current file is not part of the currently open site, Dreamweaver attempts to determine which of your locally defined sites the current file belongs to; if the current file belongs to only one local site, Dreamweaver opens that site and then locates the file in it.
