Is there a way of adding images to a page, but instead of using the local address using the server address?

yes Atkinson. Wherever you see the local address "...local/user/RootFolder/images... replace with the full remote address "http://www.konaisawesome.com/at... the image will appear broken while in dreamweaver as it will not be able to find the file, but when you push the html/css up to the server it will call the images from there.
- the image will not be broken in dreamweaver if you have an internetz connection.********

yeah thats what Ive been doing, I was wondering rather than having to change each one is there a magic button that does it all for you?

When managing the site you should be able to set your "Default images folder" and "Links relative to" to handle this.

also adding a border to images, in IE does it look like a shite bevelled edge thing, or just a flat black line as in safari?
- neverblink0
yeah, do like blaw said: make the links relative!

cheers. I think I will have to re-do each though if dragging images from Bridge? I guess Bridge can't get images from serverside?
- Not sure what ou're talking about but, sounds like something you can use "find > replace" to fixthismanslife

investigate the base meta tag, it can come in handy when switching between dev and production envs. Include it in the every page of yr site and it becomes like a "switch"

you can find/replace your "images/" with "http://www.mysite.com/images/" in the source code.
