When I used frontpage I had to put the english pages into a new folder and make
it a subweb in the main site folder with the czech pages. That's what I meant
by connect them. So I was wondering how to do it DMX. Thanks.

There's no equivalent in DW. I'd put the english pages in a folder called
"en" and the czech pages in a folder called "cz" and let the home page
selection point into the appropriate folder. Make sure your local site and
your remote site have the same folder structure and go for it.

I would use the full language name written in that language.

Hear, hear. :) HTML files are simply files, after all. Pop them into
separate folders, as Murray suggests, and you should be fine. In addition,
assuming your graphics are valid for either language (if you have graphics),
you could create a third folder for those -- say, "images" -- and link to
that folder from either language, to keep from having to duplicate all your
GIFs/JPGs, what-have-you.

That's good news. In some ways Frontpage is far easier than DMX and vice versa.
I was imagining I don't know what.
So, I'll get straight onto it.
Many thanks for all the help.
