Mr. Know Nothing

Hello, I am running 3 webpages from a server 2003 enterprise edition. All 3
pages were made with frontpage and are using the FP server extensions.
Currently to update these pages I have the master copy that I edit on my home
desktop and then publish that to the server. Lately I am on the road very
often and want to use my laptop to publish to the server. As of now before
heading on the road I publish what I have on my desktop to my laptop and then
publish to the server. Is there a better way to this? Like can I install FP
on the server and just login the server and just edit it from that server
itself?

Any ideas on this will be greatly appreciated.

You don't need to install FP on the server. Just open the remote web on
your laptop and work on it live.

You don't publish it. You are actually working on the live site. All you
do is save the pages.

You can also publish from the live remote site back your your laptop so you
have copies in synch.
