Can I publish directly to the Internet without using FTP?

I presently use FTP to publish to the Internet. I saw a man doing it once
directly from the web pages on his computer. How do I do this?

Normally you would publish from within Frontpage by http: mode if your're
using Frontpage (you don't mention if you are or not). Under File Menu >
Publish Web, put in the http:// address and enter your username and password
and you're on your way. Otherwise you have to use FTP to *transfer the
files*.

You can also use Internet Explorer's FTP feature:

In the web address field bar, type ftp://your.web.server.com which will then
attempt connecting to your ftp/web server/your host, then it will prompt for
password and user name. Open a separate explorer window with your web
folder open; then drag and drop the files across to the ftp file listing
(the remote server's list of files for your web space).
