Password challange and hyperlink

[L Kates]

I would like to take the userID when the password is sucessfully entered,
look it up in a database, and pass the stored folder name, userID and
password to an ftp site. How do i get started? Do i need to use ASP to do
this? What is the syntax to pass a user name & password into IE Explorer so
the user does not have to re-type that info when s/he reaches the site?

Thank you for this, it has started me on the path...

However, i have a few problems:

(my opsys is XP Pro sp2)

I was using FrontPage 2000, and i upgraded to FrontPage 2003 - i could not
find FP2002. (perhaps i should have just left FP2000, and followed the link
to Q321503). Both times, after i followed the instructions in 318287-"What
you need to use ASP", when i tried to preview in browser, i got a dialogue
box prompting me to run or download, then opened the asp page in "Microsoft
development environment"

SO, i went back to Q321439 and followed the instructions under Step 3, and
FP created all the pages for me, but when i try to "preview in Browser", it
again wants me to open or download, then opens "Microsoft Design Environment"

it seems to be doing that for all .asp pages. i must have something set
wrong. Please advise

Thank you

You must open and test your asp page via http not a drive letter.

I'm sorry Mr. Rowe, i do not understand. I tried publishing the web created
by FP which contains the ASP, then when i clicked on the hyperlink
"http://asptest.asp", IE could not find the page. I tried to use the run
command: http://[path]/asptest.asp with much the same results. MSDN Q318287
said to use the "preview in browser" selection to see the page. Perhaps you
can show me the correct http command. Here is the path to my file:
"F:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\My
Webs\myweb7\asptest.asp"

Thank you.

Publish your web to a web server that supports asp, and test from there.
From the paths you have given it seems you do not have a web server
installed on your PC.
