upload .CGI?

[Guest]

I am usuing FP2003 on a Windows XP Pro machine, and am running a web forum on
a hosted site, (Apache on a Linux Machine), I am attempting to "Include my
forum index page into another cell based page" using the include page option,
this will only allow me include the page if it is listed in my web on the
hard drive. I am able to import the web just fine, but when I make my link
and attempt to upload my site I get a

Server Error Can not create ???????.cgi, What do I need to do to be able
to edit my .cgi folder with FP2003 and then upload them to my site?

You will need to use a 3rd Party FTP application to upload these types of files, as in most case
under Unix/Linux they need specific permissions set for them to be executed and FP can not set these
permissions. These files should be stored in a subweb, and really never accessed via FP.

Thank You. That will solve my problem.
