sorry for misspelling above  
I am in a pinch. normally when I create a new site custom blank, the folder is created with site folder, etc all together in one folder. How do I do this in FW6? hmm

Those are created by the Blank (or other name) template, not by the application alone. Create a new document using the Blank template, and you should see the whole package structure. By the way, that’s not a requirement, just a very good suggestion. The Site Folder will be created at your first publish, in whatever location you specify.

This is how all versions of Freeway have always worked, all the way back to the year dot. Custom has never created any structure around your project for you.

You are completely free to build this structure around your project using the Finder. There is nothing magical about what the template does for you, it just builds the tree of folders. You choose the Site Folder using the Document Setup dialog, and that folder may be made (or moved) at any time you desire.

actually Walter the dialog is new. The Blank was always the one I used since I started with FW, but if you look, the dialogue palette is different now.  
you have to go to Presentation now ( which is not in previous versions) and then choose blank presentation, so hence my confusion  
thx
