how do i download from website?

G

Guest

i want to backup my website to my local computer before i start mucking with
the website which another person from my church created. the church uses
domaindirect.com as the website provider. my church website is
betheluccwat.org. i have my username and password.

i've tried ftp'ing but get error 425 aftre a long wait.

the limited info i have from domaindirect.com references
ftp.hosting.domaindirect.com. how do i use ftp on my local computer with FP
given the above info?

alternatively, i also have a comment that references
http://pages.hosting.domaindirect.com/domain.tld which also does not work for
me. i am not sure if i am to supply my username for *domain* and do not know
what *tld* stands for and if i am to append those letters to my domain name.

thanks in advance!

Does the server have FrontPage extensions??

Can you post a link so someone can check??

i did as you suggested but i don't get the usedrname/pw. i get file not
available, perhaps a password is required or there is a \ or / in the
filename.

please try what you suggested and see what happens.

Try it this way...

With IE, browse to http://www.betheluccwat.org/ now at the top of your IE
browser you should see a button with the FP logo or Edit With FrontPage,
click on that and see if you get prompted for un/pw. If you do, try entering
it there. This is not the way you will normally open the website, but it
will let you know if the un/pw & the FP extensions will let yo in.

Let us know.

hth.

i get: "the folder http://www.bethelucc.org is not available", the folder may
be located in an unavailable location; may be password protected, may contain
a \ or / in the filename.

i also tried the above using https and got the same result. have you tried
your suggestion with my site?

hmmm. if i do as you suggest and use *open site*, i get the response as per
my note to *crash* just above your response, ie. file not available, location
not accessible, may be password protected, may have a \ or / in filename.

then i tried, *open* w/o *site* and my website opened in fp with wysiwyg and
the code displayed. no un/pw was requested. then however, there is no way
to download to do my backup of the site. there is no non-greyed *publish to
site*.

as the minister, believe me there is no way i want to start mucking with the
ws that one of my parishioners built before i back up the ws! :)

I'm not getting that, so you must be entering the url incorrectly.

Click on this: http://www.betheluccwat.org

Does your site open in IE?

If so, click on the Edit with Frontpage button on the top toolbar in IE...

What happens?

thanks for all your help over the past few days!

i got a comment from domaindirect that warned me that with fp2003, i need to
add a blank to the http filename. it works. they said it was a wellknown
fp2003 glitch.

anyways, it works.

so, now i opened the website, published it to my local drive, closed fp.
then i re-opened fp and made my local site be the one on my disk and the
remote was pointed to the actual website.

and i created another copy of the website and wroote it to cd.

now, hopefully i can work away and get back to the old master as a last
resort.

thanks again!

glad you got it worked out, and thanks for the feedback.

actually, i've never heard of adding a blank to url to gain access to the
site.

That was an old post that worked when I did it back then...now go by Jon

http://pages.hosting.domaindirect.com/betheluccwat.org

I get the un/pw here.
