I am trying to upload files to my website using Frontpage2003 Publisher. It
calls for an User Id & password, which I don't remember setting up? how do I
find out what that password/user id is?

Contact your host. They are the ones who assigned it for publishing to the
remote server.

Did you type in the credentials supplied by the host?

password/user ID is to upload files

Yes, I typed in the user ID and password they assigned me. In a few seconds,
it comes back with an empty password box and changes the user id back to
bob/owner, which is not the assigned user id. Bob/owner the name of my
computer from when i got it last year. Repeated this several times, same
result.

password/user ID is to upload files

Let me give you more info. Previously, I had used FTP PRO to upload files to
my website, that I had created under Frontpage2000. The other day, when I
tried to upload new pics, the index page loaded fine, however the pics will
not show up. Acquired frontpage 2003, installed. Was reading Tuturiols and
it said it was best to upload files created in frontpage, with frontpage
publisher. I can not get frontpage publisher connect to the webserver. When
i talked to website tech support, they said go to their faqs. Could find
nothing there concerning my problem.

Thanks in advance

password/user ID is to upload files

I have already reset the FP extensions, as that was a possible solution in
the tutorial. Then when I try to publish with FP, I get the user Id/password
box, which has me stumped. (Had I set up a password/user id on installation,
I would have coded that info in hardcopy installation file). I even tried my
msn net id/password. none of it works).

Thanks in advance.

password/user ID is to upload files

Couldn't find Frontpage in the edit column of IE while browsing.

Seems I'm dealing with 2 problems here. FTP PRO, that I uploaded index page
and pics with and Frontpage.

Finally heard back from Netfirms, they say that my pic files are on the disk
and not the server and directed me to faq to solve problem, which i can not
find anything about correcting that situation. (Uploaded them the same as
usual).

The frontpage problem, is not being able to log into because of not having
the userId/password that they re talking about. Stupid of me to figure if
the FTP won't work, use the frontpage, lol.

My website is http://www.afila4u.com

The web host must either set your current login info to work with the FP extensions or set up a
second login for use with the FP extensions.

to host control panel you may be able to reset them (FPSE) yourself, otherwise have the host do
it...then Publish with FP via Publish Web (Site) http://
