I have frontpage and have always edited my site using it, my computer
crashed, we got a new one and installed frontpage again. In the past when I
would go to edit my site a box would come up asking for my user name and
password so I could connect to the host server (I think thas what it is
called) Anyway now no box comes up at all and I do not seem to beable to edit
anything. I have asked my web host and they can not help me. The site is up
and working but I can not make changes.
Sorry I do not understand much of the tech stuff. I had a lady who did this
for me but she is no longer in the business so Imust learn to do it myself.

Assuming your website online has FrontPage Server Extensions installed and
working:

Open FP
File | Open Web/Site
enter your website's URL http://www.yourwebsite.com
you will be prompted for UN/PW

Then
File | Publish Web/Site
select a location and name on your machine to Publish to.
like
C:\\My Documents\My Webs\yourwebsitename - (no extension) and this name
can be anything you want, it does not have to match your real web name.

Publish the entire site to your hardrive

Then
Close the website

and in the future you will open it locally and work locally and Publish TO
the remote host.

Open FP
File | Open Web/Site
browse to your local copy such as C:\\My Documents\My Webs\yourwebsitename
work
save
and when done you'll Publish to http://www.yourwebsite.com
