Not sure where to post this question.

When I download (get) a site, the link root root for library items is changed to public_html

So that

<!-- #BeginLibraryItem "../library/TopNav.lbi" -->

is changed to
<!-- #BeginLibraryItem "/public_html/library/TopNav.lbi" -->

The library will no longer update.

is there a way to get a site to be the same as I first uploaded it?

If not whats the best way to handle the problem.

If this is with the "latest and greatest" DW, it adds the "remote directory" to the link path for some reason or other.
setting the links to root relative appears to fix it.

NOW would some one kindly tell me why I was stupid enough to "upgrade"!!!???

Because you're a chump? Bored? Money to burn? Did I leave anything out?

For the record:

I downloaded the entire site and recreated the cache.

Went thru the library and tried to delete each item. If it says do you really want to delete, I deleted it. If it said This item has links to.. I kept it. Since this is and old site with many reworkings, there were quite a few unused library items, and eliminating them would make the job simple.

Next I opened all the templates, 2 in this case. Deleted each library and reinserted it. After the templates were renewed I updated the templates for the entire site.

There were a few library items left. I tried to delete them one at a time, and the alert box gave me the files in which each was used. Then I opened each of these pages, and re-inserted the library items.

The site seems fine. I think I did the repair completely.

You probably could have done the same mapping using other functions like "check links sitewide", but then, there is always a better way I didn't think of.

If some other poor soul needs this: following is some search engine fodder.

Dreamweaver library will not update
Dreamweaver library item public_html
Dreamweaver library item www
Dreamweaver updates wrong
Dreamweaver updates incorrectly
Cannot update Dreamweaver
Dreamweaver library problem
