  • F.A.Q: FrontPage Information and Troubleshooting

    The following are common problems and solutions encountered with using FrontPage and FrontPage98.

    NOTE: If you are using FrontPage, you should NEVER use regular FTP to upload your files. This will damage the extensions. Stick with one or the other all the time.

    6. How do I publish with FrontPage? - Top

    After you have built your web pages on your computer, you will be ready to publish them. Basically, this just means that you will upload them to our server. Once this is done, your pages will be viewable from the web. However, you must do this in the following manner.

    Warning: FrontPage Account holders should NEVER use FTP to transfer files as it can damage the FrontPage extensions.

      1. Launch FrontPage Explorer and open the web you’ve created on your computer.

      2. From the menu at the top of the window, select File, then Publish

      3. A) If this is the first time you publish to our server, select More Webs and enter the location you want to publish your FrontPage web to. (www.yourdomain.com) Hit Return (Enter) on your keyboard.

      B) If you have published to the server before, your "Destination Web Server" (www.yourdomain.com) will appear in the Publish window.

      IMPORTANT: Use www.yourdomain.com as the Destination Web Server to publish to our server. Leave the "Destination Web Name" blank.

      4. You will be asked for your USERNAME and PASSWORD. This is your domain's User ID and your FrontPage Password (which may be different than your regular Telnet/FTP/POP password). If you're not sure what it is or if you aren't allowed past this point, you'll need to contact us for a new FrontPage password.

      5. You can watch the progression of the upload by looking at the bottom left corner of FrontPage Explorer.
