Can't get "file upload" in FP form to work - can't change "folder properties" for upload

P

That was my problem and I discovered there is no solution for the
remote host I have my web hosted on. I have since discovered this is a
common problem labeled many ways in this forum. This is my effort to
give it an easily identifiable subject for someone else like me to
readily find.

1. If you can't get your files to upload from the form, first check
that you have changed the properties on the target folder to permit
it.

2. If you are like most of us, using a remote server with FrontPage
extensions on their "Apache Server" you are out of luck with no
work-around - unless you move to a different non-Apache server.

He are the details from my ISP techical support:

"Read: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;288716.
It says 'Apache servers do not permit uploads as a security feature to
protect from attacks.'"
