How do I set up a username from my server in frontpage?

Guest

When I open my website on Frontpage, it doesn';t ask me for my username and
password. I need to figure out how to login to my server so I can publish my
website. Help please?

Make sure that you've set the page's margins to zero in the page's
properties. By default, the browsers will always assume there are margins
around the page as most people want the page to float in a bit from any
edge.

Hope this helps,

Use the username and password assigned to you by your host.
Open your FP web on your local machine.
Select File | Publish Site and input the URL to your website:
http://www.myweb.com or whatever your host requires to publish.
If you don't receive the login box, but it lets you publish, you need to
contact your host.
If you don't receive the login box, and it won't let you publish, you need
to contact your host.

Contact your host/ISP for your logon details. It won't ask for your
password if you're opening the local copy of your site, only when you
publish.

Make sure you have your web open
Publish from File menu > select the Publish Site option etc.

Once it attempts to connect it will ask for the password/username, unless it
has been saved with the "remember me" type routine - which is controlled by
Internet Explorer in which case, it is already "in the system" and will log
on automatically.
