Okay so I'm starting to do a lot of work with my website and am constanly up loading new pages and changing them. It's starting to drive me nuts because it is so labor intensive. I'm right clicking on the file manager and opening it in a new window, clicking on upload files and painstakingly uploading each pic, item, ect. . . Why can't I simply upload the html page and have the whole thing load or even just select more than one file at a time. I'm sure it's just me . . . right?

One incredibly easy way to transfer hundreds of files at a time is by using WS_FTP. If you don't like that program, try doing a Google search for FTP software. One file at a time is totally unnecessary. Good luck!

2 great reccomendations:

winscp: http://www.winscp.net/ (free) supports FTP or SFTP... option to sync folders (upload all changed files)
Beyond Compare: http://www.scootersoftware.com/ (commercial) full featured file comparison / folder synchronization software that supports FTP and SFTP
