Where did "Edit in Frontpage" go?

[Guest]

Hello
I created a website and any time I would make changes to it, I would simply go online, go to the website and the click "File", "Edit in Frontpage" then it would ask me for my server password. I've had no problems in the past and now all of a sudden, it doesn't give me that option and I don't know how to make changes. I'm learning the hard way that I should have kept a copy of the site and all of it's folders on a disk.

Any help would be appreciated
Thanks
Tammy

Hello!
I created a website and any time I would make changes to it, I would

simply go online, go to the website and the click "File", "Edit in
Frontpage" then it would ask me for my server password. I've had no
problems in the past and now all of a sudden, it doesn't give me that option
and I don't know how to make changes. I'm learning the hard way that I
should have kept a copy of the site and all of it's folders on a disk.

Using IE 6.0 and FrontPage 2002 I have the "Edit in FrontPage" option.

In FrontPage click on File > Import... you can import your whole website to
a local folder.

Don't import.

Open your online web with FP - File/Open Web http://www.whateveritis.com then

Publish your 'live' Web down to your C://whereeveryoukeepyourwebs - you will be prompted as to where you want to put the local web.

Then work on your local copy, when you're happy with the design and everything works the way you want you Publish it up to your host server. This way you always have the local version.

The import function only imports what is seen by a browser, so shared
borders, include files, navigation structure, themes, asp pages, databases,
etc. are not imported.
