Link to open site in FrontPage directly?

[David Lozzi]

Howdy,

I was wondering if its possible to have a link on a site that when clicked, will open the specified site in the link to open in FrontPage. Is this possible?

Thanks,

Don't think you can run an exe from from a link.
Try the Edit With Frontpage... button that usually appears in IE toolbar

Here's what I mean: I can have a link point directly to an ftp location which will open my FTP application <a href="ftp://ftp.mysite.com">FTP</a>. I know it uses whatever the client PC uses for its default FTP manager, but i was hoping there is something like this for FrontPage? So maybe something like <a href="frontpage://www.mysite.com">Open in FrontPage</a>. See what i mean?

thanks!!

what has executables to do with this question?

In preview mode, if you have a link to an external site, usually if you click the link then the other site will open in Frontpage.

or, in design mode if you Shift-LeftClick, then the site should open in Frontpage (which is really the same action as "Edit with Frontpge" from IE toolbar).

I don't think thats what he was asking. Sounds like he wants a link on his website to open FrontPage on a local machine

Yeah, that's what I'm looking for. Some way of opening frontpage with whatever site I want opened. For example, my local intranet page lists all of my projects and applications, with their associated development sites. What I would like to do is also have a link to open the development site in Frontpage, i.e.

Site 1 | dev | frontpage
site 2 | dev | frontpage
site 3 | dev | fp

See? It would really ease my pain due to the many sites I now need to use frontpage with.

thanks!!

If you are viewing the site at the time in IE, then click File Menu | Edit with FP

Have you tried the "Edit with..." button on the Internet Explorer tool bar?
that opens whatever site you're viewing at the time (providing permissions are granted to do this) so you could set that up for the sites you maintain.
