I am the owner not the creator of my website and have my user name &
password. I need to make changes to my site in MS FrontPage. How do I do
this? Is there a step by step procedure that I can follow? My website
creator is not responding to emails......made errors on site that I need to
correct soon. Also, how do I change my password so only I, and not my
creator, can have access to my site in the future? Thanks

Open FrontPage
File | Open Web/Site you'll enter your online url:
http://www.yourwebsite.com
Publish Site
then enter the location on your local HD that you want to Publish to. You
may be prompted to create a web/site if you haven't done this
before...C:\....whatever \My Webs\yourwebname (no extension but can be any
name you want)

Then make your changes on your *local* copy. When your happy with changes
make sure you Save All. Then you just reverse the procedure, this time
publishing your changes to the http:// address.

Changing passwords procedure varies..sometimes the you (the owner) can do
this if the host has an online web interface that allows you to, or just
contact the host and have them change passwords.

Thank you so much. I have some old site pages already copied onto my hard
drive when my website creator talked me through it over the phone. However,
these files are not used for the newly designed site as they are totally
different. Do I need to just delete these....and will it mess up my already
published site? Thanks again.

no don't delete them just publish to a new webname on your hd...you can call
them anything you want.

I'd get rid of the javascript that disables right click...it's worthless and
prevents people from quickly bookmarking your site.

then check your form for a valid email address.

I followed the procedures below and when I entered my www.website.com info.,
it asked for my username and password. They were already set up in the
computer from the last time I had to work on my site. So I just had to input
the password as the username appeared. However, I am getting the following
error message:
"The folder isn't accessible. The folder may be located in an unavailable
location, protected by a password, or the filename contains a / or \." I
sure hope this doesn't mean my site creator has changed my password without
my knowledge.

I was not prompted to create a website, however, but is this something I
need to do....start all over? Thanks for your help.

Yes, I entered the http:// part. The website creator says it was created
with FrontPage when she first created it back in 2004 and she told me to
purchase FrontPage so I would be able to make future changes. Since she
recently, in July 05, made design (not text) changes to create a more
professional appearance, I just assumed it remained in FrontPage. Could that
be why I cannot save it to my hard drive in FrontPage?

No, you should still be able to, the site does have FP extensions installed.

Try this to see if you can open the live site; browse to the site with IE
then click on the toolbar button in IE that says Edit With
FrontPage...you'll be prompted for un/pw...see if this opens the live site
or not. If it does you can try to Publish to your hd that way.

Okay thanks. I tried this and was able to save the home page on my hard
drive. I clicked on "Edit with FrontPage" and it prompted me for my
password. Again, I think there is a problem with that because I had to
eventually hit cancel and then it let me view the home page only in live view
as if I could make changes to the text, etc. So I clicked on the "Save As"
button and save the home page on my hard drive. Do I need to just open wach
page and save them in this manner or should I be allowed to save the entire
site all at once when I click on the Edit with FrontPage button? At any
rate, you help has been very valuable because at first, I didn't even have
the home page on my hard drive....now if I could get them all, that would be
great. Thanks again.

That was just a test to see if you could open your web live. IF it did not
open the web (you should have seen all the files listed on the left
column..the Folder List) then your un/pw is probably not correct and/or it
could be the extensions are wacked.

You don't want to just copy or save as stuff from FP web..because the web is
an entire group of files that are interrelated. You need to open the web
live and Publish it to hd...NOT Import or Copy pages from it...you can but
this is not what you want to do.

Contact your host, have them reset or check your un/pw, have them check or
re-install the FP extensions.

btw...don't use a third party ftp program either as this will wack the
extensions too.
