Hello Richard,

Official support for version 9 has now been withdrawn...  please see this FAQ:

https://helpcenter.websitex5.com/post/128269

Unfortunately there is no way to rebuild a WebSite X5 project if you no longer have access to the project files, other than by copying and pasting as much text as possible into a new project...  and likewise downloading as many images as possible and inserting them into Image Objects in a new project.

Kind regards,

Paul

Paul is quite right on this, I am afraid. At least when you do what he suggests, you will be able to take advantage of the new features of Version 12 and you will end up with a better site.

not what I hoped, but what I expected.  I know x5 doesn't build on my computer.  I have used publisher and been able to move things back and forth using my Filezilla ftp, but Publisher doesn't animate.  However it is less restrictive to placing photos and captions.Thanks for the reply.
