Still can't publish

[Dave]

Thanks for all the ideas, BUT
I'm no further forward. I feel that the problem I face is FP2003 or XP
refusing to set up the local stuff and allow me to publish so I can then try
out the reinstalled extensions.

Trying to open a remote website in FP as per advice of 17/7/07, dialogue box
still shows a colon rather than a URL, and process stops with error
"http://www.ntc-animals.co.uk isn't available. The folder may be located in
an unavailable location, protected by a password,
or the filename contains a / or \"

Where do I go from there?
Dave

http://www.ntc-animals.co.uk still does not have FrontPage extensions
installed, or they are corrupt.

Look at
http://www.ntc-animals.co.uk/_vti_inf.html
and compare that file to
http://www.rxs-enterprises.org/_vti_inf.html

The two files should be almost identical both in the browser and in View
Source (there will be some small differences). _vti_inf.html indicates
which version of extensions is installed. If FrontPage cannot read the
version information in the file, you get nowhere.

"Where do I go from here?" You repair the extensions on the web site.
Or remove them completely and reinstall them. You will NEVER be able to
publish with FrontPage to http://www.ntc-animals.co.uk until the
extensions are installed and working.
