FrontPage 98 Server-Side Editing

These instructions are for FrontPage 98 users. Similar instructions are also provided for FrontPage 2002 and FrontPage 2000.

Although FrontPage 98 is still supported, for improved stability and additional functionality, it is strongly recommended that you upgrade to a more recent version.

Server-side editing is the simplest way to create and maintain your FrontPage web. Your web site is created on your domain, and all development and subsequent changes are applied directly to your live site. New FrontPage users should consider using this method.

Open Microsoft FrontPage and select "Open FrontPage Web" from the File menu...

Click the "More Webs" button, enter http://www.yourname.com/ (replacing "yourname" with your actual domain name), and choose "List Webs"...

Double-click "<Root Web>"...

Enter your account username and password and click "OK"...

Once your FrontPage web has loaded, you will be presented with a graphical view of your web site...

Create and edit web pages using FrontPage's familiar explorer-type interface. You can add other file types by simply dragging them into FrontPage from other applications. New files you add, and any changes you make are instantly applied to your live web site.
