"ftp://ftp-hosted" is not the http publishing protocol. Something isn't set
up correctly on the host's end.

| Thanks for your reply.
|
| I open the web and then click File>Publish Web. The web publishing window
| is displayed along with a 'Name and Password Required' dialogue box. I
enter
| the name of the web as known by the server and the given password.
'Publish
| Web' then displays the local files along side the files on the server.
The
| local files that contain the search facility and the contact page (form
and
| search) are listed with a status that reads conflict. Other files are
listed
| as publish or up to date. Options are set to publish changed files only
and
| determine changes by comparing files. The log box is checked. I click
pages
| and FrontPage opens the progress box with listing pages at
| ftp://ftp-hosted... It can do this for a varying amount of time but then
| throws up a message box stating Bad parameter passed to Web Server
| Extensions. Check the information you entered and try again > OK.
Clicking
| OK returns FrontPage to the page editing screen.
|
| I can upload up to about three files at a time by selecting, right
clicking
| and clicking 'upload selected files' but it does not upload working
files -
| the FrontPage automatic features disabled and the web site displays (I
think)
| and run time or server extension error page. Sorry, cannot be precise with
| this at the moment as the web site is running an inferior version uploaded
by
| the ISP which works and I do not want to tinker (which of course does not
| allow me to update the site.
