Error notice 'can't open file....' when I want to open up my websi

[Liverlass3981]

Hi,

I'm in rather a panic mode at the moment and hope someone can rescue me!
I've spent most of the day working in Frontpage on my website and then
published it. I didn't test it as I should have done in Sandbox Paypal and
published it to the server. Some of my paypal buttons didn't work so I
started to change the coding behind the pages so that the coding was similar
to the buttons that did work. I still need to fix a lot of the buttons up or
I'm going to turn customers away when they see that it doesn't work if they
buy an item. Now, when I open up my website in Frontpage, instead of all my
website files appearing, a new page appears. I delete it/don't save it and
instead open up one of my page files for my website. A notice comes up each
time, saying ' C:\Documents and Settings\George\Local Settings\Temorary
Internet Files\FrontPageTemDir\e44fd4od.htm '

Can anyone explain what has happened and advise me (in simple step-by-step,
if possible) what has happened and how I can access my files to amend them
without this problem occuring. Many thanks.

download and run this:

which should cure your problems.

here's a tip I give to people wanting to do things like paypal buttons,
google ads, etc. within FrontPage:
get your code onto your clipboard (windows clipboard).
set your cursor where you want the item to appear (in design view) and click
insert/ web components/ advanced control/ HTML. when the insert html dialog
pops up paste your code in there.
when you double click the web bot tag you can edit/ change the code.
the advantage of this method is that FrontPage will absolutely positively
leave the code alone. that way if something goes wrong, you'll know whose
fault it is. ;-)
