FrontPage 2000
Method 2: Publishing
Publishing
allows you to edit your documents offline (on your hard drive), uploading
to your website only when you choose. This provides a "staging area"
for work, making it easy to update your website once you're satisfied
with the changes you've made.
Step 1: Run Microsoft FrontPage Explorer by
clicking Start/Programs/Microsoft FrontPage.
Step 2: Choose "Open Web..."
from the "File" menu.
Step 3: Locate your existing
Web on your local hard drive. This will often be located in the C:\My
Websdirectory. Now, press "Open".
Step 4: You will be presented
with a graphical view of your site. Create new files and edit existing
files using the familiar "file explorer" interface. You can upload non-HTML
files by dragging them into the FrontPage Explorer from another application.
Changes which you make will affect your local copy only.
Step 5: Once you are satisfied
with your local copy, choose "Publish Web..." from the "File" menu.
Step 6: Type in http://www.yourdomain.com/
as the location you wish to publish to. You may also choose to "publish
changed pages only." Now, press "Publish".
Step 7: Enter your username
and password.
The local copy of your website will then be published
to your actual website at Xenoplanet. This process can take as long
as 10 minutes, depending on the size of your site, and the speed of
your connection.
