Uploading straight from FrontPage
Tony:
Cheers Sandra,
Icon number five from the left on top tool bar in Frontpage is 'Publish Web' Popped in my fp address, next box presented popped in my ISP username and password and 'Bobs your Uncle'
Handy these Help Files ;D

Now that we have sorted uploading via Frontpage, I have another query. I have just had a .co.uk domain registered and hosted by my ISP for free. Now to configure it the page reads thus:
Mail settings
SMTP mail service only available on accounts with static IP address component
POP3 I wish to collect my mail using POP3
Other I wish to specify DNS records for mail to this domain
Domain hosting settings
Default I wish to have this domain hosted automatically under my webspace
Directory /htdocs/ looks like I should put somthing in here
Other I wish to specify DNS records for hosts under this domain
Additional DNS records (Advanced)
There are no additional records for this domain
Renewing your domain
Your domain, www.tonysugrue.co.uk is set to expire on 2005-06-25
Your hosting for domain, www.tonysugrue.co.uk is set to expire on 2004-06-25
Now the folder I use in Frontpage which has all my webpages in it is called D:/ Mydocs/My Webs and in it are a ?private? and ?image? folders plus two more folders ?myweb? and ?myweb2? both also with private and images sub folders in each , all three private and image folders are empty . And all my webpages are listed below these folders in the Open File window.
Question how do I configure this lot so as to be able to use my new .co.uk domain as well as my existing web address.
Thanks in advance
:)
Sandra:
I think we will have to wait for someone else to sort that out Tony,sorry :(
If I get an hour spare sometime before someone has solved your problem,I may come up with how to do it but I havent got my own domain name,so its unknown territory for me again :-*
Sandra:
This should work Tony :
Take all your webpages and transfer them up via ftp to the directory /htdocs/ on your hosting server.
The important thing is that if you have stuff with links on it then its the linking structure that must be mantained when uploaded.
ie: the relative path
For example
If under your frontpage storage you store your images for the pages in the IMAGES folder on your pc,then you must make a new IMAGES folder in the /htdocs directory on the webhost so that the page when uploaded will find them :-*

Thanks once again Sandra, I have got as far as viewing [on the web]the content uploaded via Frontpage, of the folder configured for my new .co.uk domian, but not via my www.tonysugrue.co.uk address.
Explained in detail to tech support at PlusNet and their fourum [awaiting an answer]:
I can connect to fp server via 'Frontpage' my problem is I'm trying to make my new .co.uk web site viewable, as well as my PlusNet domain, and I'm struggleing. I have configured the .co.uk domian using /htdocs/myweb7, and I can upload content to said folder, but I can only view it via web address http://fp.suggy.plus.com
When I type my www.tonysugrue.co.uk domian into the IE address bar I get this message
HTTP 404 - File not found
Internet Explorer
How do I view said web content via my.co.uk address ? Do I need to download some additional file from the Microsoft site, if so which file would that be ? I'm using Frontpage version 10.0.4128.

Any Frontpage multi domian users out there ?
