QUESTION:
FrontPage POLICY on PUBLISHING WEB!

ANSWER:
THIS IS THE ONLY WAY WE SUPPORT FRONTPAGE:
This means, that if you publish your site using FP in ANY other way then what is suggested here... we will not PROVIDE SUPPORT on it.

Login: Choose "Open FrontPage Web" from the File Menu in FrontPage Explorer. It will ask you for a Web Server of File Location. Enter yourdomain.com and then "list webs". Next, you will need to select (double-click) the root web. The requested login and password will be the same as your FTP account.

Usage: FrontPage supplies you with two separate interfaces. The FrontPage explorer is used to manage the files within your web site. If you open a file in your web site another program called FrontPage Editor will open. When you are connected to your web then all changes made to any file you edit will be saved to your web.
*Note: Although the software documentation states that you can create the site on your computer and then "publish" it to the web server, we do not SUPPORT this.
CAN IT BE DONE ? YES.

WILL WE OFFER ANY SUPPORT OF ANY KIND ON THIS IF YOU DO IT THAT WAY ? NO

Many times publishing to the server from your computer will loose the Interactive web bots features that you may have setup when designing your site on your local computer. We recommend that you create your entire site by being connected to your web and saving directly to the server. To move files already created on your web site use the Import command found under the File menu within FrontPage Explorer to select the files to import to the server. This is by far the best method for moving files from your hard drive to the server.
