M$ Front Page users?

“Here’s the deal. About a year ago I got a new computer and the new one didn’t have Front Page on it. I finally got FP but I don’t know how to access my cite now. I’ve got to get the Dirtbagger’s Deluxe back up to speed and do an overhaul but I can’t get to it. Is anyone knowledgeable with Front Page that can instruct me on how to log back into my cite?”

“It's not necessarily a FrontPage thing. You can get in with WS_FTP as well, for example. I think you can get it at download.com.

When you open FP, right-click on any file on your directory tree. Where it says "Publish Selected Files...", you'll be prompted for your USER ID or name and password. You enter your ISP account information, and you're in. The ISP access info is probably in an email message you have somewhere.”

“"When you open FP, right-click on any file on your directory tree. Where it says "Publish Selected Files...", you'll be prompted for your USER ID or name and password."

Because it's new FP I don't have any files in it. I have my site burned to a disk. Do I need to put the site in FP?

Thanks for the tips.”

“Nigal can you get E-mail from your Dirtbag site? Cause I sent you one.”

“I'll check now. I don't check it all that often because traffic has been way down due to my own neglect. 8)”

“You've got mail chicky!”

“Back at ya.Your site came up among fireside conversation the other day, Quote, "you seen that one site...them guys are weird!" I said " Hey! I know them. The one guy is cool ..but man the other one...".Ha!”

“You'd be surprised at how many people think Dirtbag Darrel is real. I get it all the time.”

“Learn some html slacker! ;)
I do all my codeing on notepad!”

“Yes, but can you write a device drive with "cat >>"?”

“....and how about a reciprocal link?
I've had you linked for ages....

“I presume you upload to an FTP server. I use dreamweaver, but you should be able to define the site somewhere. It should ask for your FTP server, log on info and the root folder. I'm pretty sure you can then just synchronize and it will copy the files off the FTP to your comp. Since you have the files, i think you can just import the site off the disk into front page.”

“from Frontpage "help":
"If your Internet service provider (ISP) has the Microsoft FrontPage Server Extensions or SharePoint Team Services from Microsoft installed, you can publish to the Web server using HTTP. Otherwise, you can use Microsoft FrontPage to publish your web site to an FTP server."

Personally, though I find it a lot easier to us WS_FTP for accessing my site, even if I use Frontpage to change and make pages.

However, directly accessing the site through explorer (my network places) in XP is easiest of all, and is generally how I do it.”

“Hey cindy lu, I been using WS_FTP to upload my pages for a long long time. Nice simple free little program.”

“Ya mean...[looks stunned, disappointed]...there's no Dirtbag Darrell?

I use CuteFTP, works well.

Nigal, I might be able to give you free hosting if you want it. Email me.”
