Message: [QUOTE="Stefan B Rusynko, post: 13026630"] Create a user password for Windows - doesn't matter if you are the only one using the PC IIS requires authentication using your windows user id and password -- _____________________________________________ SBR @ ENJOY (-: [ Microsoft MVP - FrontPage ] "Warning - Using the F1 Key will not break anything!" (-; _____________________________________________ | When entering [URL]http://localhost/[/URL] ; on the IE browser address line the error | screen is: | | "The website declined to show this webpage | Most likely causes: | This website requires you to log in." | (detail) | "This error (HTTP 403 Forbidden) means that Internet Explorer was able to | connect to the website, but it does not have permission to view the webpage." | | I don't know why this is a security problem. I have not "installed" | security/log on/password access to the local site since it is only on my PC; | i.e. no one else accesses the localhost. | | My goal is to test changes I make to FP pages before uploading to the www | site (stonehamme.com). | | 1. Why am I getting the error message when opening localhost with IE? | 2. Any suggestions on setting up a test environment to check out the changes | to the localhost pages before uploading via FP to the www site? | | Thanks | Jim T. | [/QUOTE]
