open file window is blank

when opening a web, the "open file" window is blank. This just started this
week. I can see the pages if I go to a previous page and look at "folders"

What location is the Open file dialog pointing to (in Look in)
And which type of file is showing in file types?

1- open front page
2- hit ok for user name and password
3- file open
4- at file name, choose http://www.mywebsite.com
5- the next window is blank when it used to list all the files and folders
of my website.

I have more than one website and the other ones work just fine. Its just
this one.

It should be File Open Site (not just File Open or File Open page)
1) In Windows Explorer Find and delete all FP Temp Files
Usually in C:\WINDOWS\Temp and %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp
- in FP 2003 you need to look in the super hidden folder
%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\FrontPageTempDir
2) In Windows Explorer Find and delete all hidden *.web files
Usually in %USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Microsoft\Web Server Extensions\Cache

I tried it all. Even called up the hosting company and they reloaded the
frontpage extensions. This is a real problem when I try to hyperlink a page
or image. There are no files listed in the directory.
