i am trying to publish my website that i made completely on frontpage2003 (from officeXP Pro)..
after hours of trying to figure it out, and calling the yahoo! tech support..
i was told to publish using FTP, this is what im doing, and what is happening... (sorry so long!

i go to file/publish web..
a box pops up that says publish destination, i go to browse and a box pops up that says new publish location, and my network places is in view.
if i go to the address bar/"look in" bar there is a dropdown window with an icon that says FTP location and then add/modify locations.
i go there, enter the info as yahoo! directed me.. click ok, the click okay on the browse box.
i thinks for a minute and says does not exsits would you like front page to create the web... click yes it thinks for a minut
then THIS IS THE PROBLEM, i think
a box pops up that says username and password required "this operation requires end-user permission for: ftp://blah blah blah, list the info i put in..
now WHAT IS AN END-USER? ARE THEY ASKING FOR MY YAHOO! ID, MY WINDOWS ID, WHAT?? i have tried everything i can think of... i am pulling my hair out, i cant figure this out for the life of me! please please please help!!
 
You need to get a real host. Yahoo ain't one

There is no FP2003 with Office XP Pro. Could that be your problem

i have a couple of webs on yahoo.

yahoo uses the domain name as the default user name (mickymouse.com...or whatever) + then your password.

never had problem with it, but then again I hardly ever use ftp - maybe you're havin problem with your ftp-er program?
