Frontpage 2003 + FTP - 8/1/2005 19:15:03
I have recently moved web hosting companies (I signed with Easyspace), but the package I selected (Gold) allows me to only upload my site using FTP. I'm not sure which FTP program to use, but I have downloaded a 30-day trial version of CuteFTP 7 to see if it's for me. With regard to CuteFTP, you are presented with two windows - the local site is in the left window & the remote site appears in the right window. My question is: do you have to drag each file (page, graphic, image) one at a time or can you select all & drag everything at once? Any help with regard to FTP would be very much appreciated. My website location is www.gene-watson.com where an Easyspace holding page can presently be viewed.

You can ftp from FrontPage as well. You don't have to "publish"

Thank you, one & all, for all your valuable contributions - very much appreciated! I downloaded an evaluation copy of WS_FTP & it appears to be the program that I may go with for uploading my site. I say 'may', because I have just opened up Frontpage 2003 tonight & it displayed my local site in the left hand window & the remote site in the right hand window, something that it wasn't doing for me previously. So things a re looking promising.
I realise that using FTP with Frontpage causes harm to the Frontpage Server Extensions, but I thought that this was not an issue if I do not use any of the Frontpage components that require these so-called extensions. I don't even use the shared borders within Frontpage 2003.
Thanks again!

I recently downloaded an evaluation copy of WS_FTP & it is now the program that I'm now using to upload my site. I finally sorted out my problem with regard to previous attempts to upload my pages. It appears that the Windows XP Firewall was blocking WS_FTP.
I simply turned off the Firewall & was then able to upload. I then switched the Firewall back on once I had finished. Norton Anti Virus 2005 was looking after my firewall protection while the Windows one was turned off. I have uploaded two pages of my web site so far, the home page of which can now be viewed at www.gene-watson.com So things are looking very promising indeed.

The only long term problems I have ever seen with clients that use FTP with Front Page, is that every once in a while you need to uninstall and reinstall the extensions.
Like someone said above, if you start using any FP components, they will get corrupted much faster.
