I want to get GTE DSL which comes with 5 Megs of WEB space.<br>Can I create my pages like normal but upload using FTP?<br>Is there such an option in Front Page 2000?<br>The FREE WEB site on GTE does not have Front Page 2000 Server Extensions installed.<br>I have used a program called WS_FTP which works good.<br><br>But I have gotten used to Front Page 2000 now. <p>DougP<br><a href=mailto: dposton@universal1.com> dposton@universal1.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br> Ask me how Bar-codes can help you be more productive.

Yes, when you are ready to publish your pages you simply do-file, publish web and then in the resulting dialog box enter the FTP url.&nbsp;&nbsp;I've done it even to pre-distributed web addresses using the numeric url after the web hosting site established the proper directories.&nbsp;&nbsp;When the addresses were dispersed I then started using the names.

when you say FTP url is assume its something like <A HREF="ftp://ftp.whatever.com" TARGET="_new">ftp://ftp.whatever.com</A><br><br>If my site is <A HREF="

http://www.gte.net/mywebs/my_actual_web.htm"

TARGET="_new">

http://www.gte.net/mywebs/my_actual_web.htm</A>

<br>then is <br><A HREF="ftp://ftp.gte.net/mywebs/my_actual_web.htm" TARGET="_new">ftp://ftp.gte.net/mywebs/my_actual_web.htm</A><br>going to work?<br>I have never used and FTP url to submit pages anywhere in Front Page or WS_FTP<br>I just did &quot;open web&quot; in Front Page <br><A HREF="

http://www.someweb.com"

TARGET="_new">

http://www.someweb.com</A>

<br>and I'm in.<br><br> <p>DougP<br><a href=mailto: dposton@universal1.com> dposton@universal1.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br> Ask me how Bar-codes can help you be more productive.

As I recall, the second ftp is not used.

One other thing, I hope you're not trying to send pages created by Front Page without removing the FP coding.&nbsp;&nbsp;Go to the html coding tab and make certain you're not sending the FP created coding on your pages and then expecting a non-Front Page site to execute this coding.&nbsp;&nbsp;Have fun.

Oh!!, OK,<br>Now it makes sense that Front Page is adding some coding to the pages and that's why they are not compatable with standard FTP software.<br><br>Thanks <p>DougP<br><a href=mailto: dposton@universal1.com> dposton@universal1.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br> Ask me how Bar-codes can help you be more productive.
