Managing Files and Images in Website Builder
With Website Builder, you can upload files to your account so that you can create direct links from your Web pages to the uploaded files. You can upload pictures, music, videos, graphics, Microsoft Office documents, and PDF files; however, you cannot upload .htm, .html, .js, .php, or .asp files.
Note: If you select Upload Images as Files, image files will be stored in the files folder. This allows you to create direct links from your Web pages to the uploaded files. The images will not be added to the Image Library.
For information about file size limitations, see Are there file size limitations when uploading to Website Builder?
