VS' publish website feature not copying static files

[schneider]

Hi all,

I'm trying to use the Visual Studio 2005 publish website feature.
After compiling, all files are copied to the destination directory
except the static files (e.g. graphics, .txt, ...). The documentation
says that these files should also be copied to the target folder. Is
there a hidden setting I've overlooked or am I using this feature in a
wrong way? Do I have to tag the corresponding files? I guess I'm not
misunterstanding the feature, because actually copying the static
files also would make perfect sense for publishing a website. Any
hints?
Thanks in advance.

Cheers, Hannes
