Thanks in advance!

Hi Irina, welcome to the forum!

So where's the website hosted? That'll be the key.

Thanks for responding to my post. Website is hosted through mobileme.com. For 'Server' I typed www.capturedbyirina.com & 'Server Path':http://web.me.com/capturedbyirina/capturedbyirina.com/Galleries/Galleries.html. is this correct?

Ah, ok, that makes more sense. I don't have MobileMe access anymore, but I don't think you can FTP to it, which is what the Web upload is trying to do.

Someone else correct me if I'm wrong... I think your site will be stored in the Sites folder on your iDisk, so instead you'd export to that folder on your hard drive and then copy it onto your iDisk. You'll probably want to put it into a subfolder that you don't overwrite your existing site. I don't know offhand how you'd tie it in with iWeb though, so I'll leave that one to someone else.

in order for me to upload galleries to iDisk what do i have to put for server/path server in LR?

You don't need to worry if you use the Export option instead of Upload.
