Moving pages in DW cs6 files panel destroyed my site!!!

So, I'm beyond furious. I'm building my first site in Windows 7 DW CS6. A lot of hours put in. I have about 7 pages done. I just set up my FTP with my hosting service. I was watching a tutorial on uploading files. Every file that was moved was done with the site defined and done within the files panel in DW. Supposedly, doing it this way will automatically update the links and keep everything working fine. This is ********.  I synced my local site to the remote server; things didn't go into the right place on the remote sever, so I moved files in the remote server within the the remote server to the 'public_html' folder.

 

Okay, I hope this is making sense so far... I'm absolutely furious and can barely read right now. Anyway, I then did a 'get' from the remote onto my local. It was the 404 error page. This created a new folder called 'public_html' in my local which I know is where the files need to go that will actually be seen on the internet. So, in my local, I moved all my html pages into that new 'public_html' folder newly created in the local. Now, DW asked if I wanted to update the links. I said yes, duh, of course I want you to update it you idiot. It them said that it did so... which was ******** because now all the CSS, html, spry, images, etc, have been disassociated from the the html pages, and my index page looks like a drunk monkey on PCP and acid attempted to finger paint it together and created a monstrosity.

 

I am so angry. I didn't back it up. Not like I'll ever make this mistake again so don't mention it. I looked up the broken links solution, but I don't know how to go about fixing them; I don't know what they're even referring to or how to fix them, so this option is out. I think I need to just delete everything and start from scratch. I am so pissed off right now... hulkishly so. There has to be a better way to do this. Someone who is a master please help me on this. I don't want to take my laptop and rip it in half over my head; then stomp in into the pavement in front of my car; then run it over and over and over with my car until it's so ingrained into the road that its basically disappeared.

 

I repeat, the site is defined, and I moved all the pages within the files panel in DW. I followed the rules here, and my site got obliterated. I've scoured the internet for a solution before posting. I find it impossible that this hasn't happened to anyone else. Someone please offer a solution here. I'm desperate.

 

** This is a copy of the log when I try to move the index.html from local to remote server... every other page was actually alright upon inspection... why is only the index page a drunken monkey portrait? I mean if the index doesn't work the site is worthless.

**Alright... I got the pages to look normal in live view in DW; however, now pushing F12, the page will not load in chrome, as where it used to. Second, all pages look horrible in chrome when looking at them live on my hosting site. Third, I'm defiantly putting my files in the wrong folders in the remote server. I'm pretty sure about that. 

 

Sincerely and obviously exasperated,

 

Juan Pablo
