Don't want a local site

Sometimes when I am connecting to a website (to edit content in
FrontPage), I am able to connect directly to the site without
downloading any of the files. But with my latest site, it keeps
forcing me to download all of the files to a local web first. I just
make a few updates here and there, so I just want to edit live. I'm
not the main admin on this site and am not the person who backs
everything up.

Anyone know why it's forcing the local web and how I can disable it?

Thanks,
Tish

What do you mean it's "forcing" you to download? Are you saying that you
can't edit live?...maybe the FPSE have been removed.

Sounds like you are opening an FTP site - this cannot be edited on line
and must be downloaded, or you edit the local copy and publish changes.

when it does this, just don't log in. if a site opens click file/ close
site (or file/ close web). then with FP open but no web open just click
file/ open site (or web) and browse to the web you wish to work from.
