Problems uploading - please help - 4/12/2002 5:55:54
Hi,
I have been using Frontpage since August. Our website was uploading and we were updating it regularly. There was then a period of no updates. Some information about e-mail addresses had to be changed which was done however since then when I try to upload frontpage says that uploading is complete however the website is not updated. I wondered if this is a frontpage problems or a server problem. It is really frustrating as very little was changed. I would be grateful for any help.
Thanks in advance
Z.C.Robertson

Z, sometimes what shows up on the screen is not what is on the server. This can be due to various "caches" that exist between your computer and the servers. You can put a "meta-tag" on your page that will keep it from being cached on your PC.
If the page doesn't contain any Frontpage Components then you could FTP the page to the site and see if it updated. Then you would know for sure that there is a Frontpage problem...
Another thing to find out is if anything changed on the server. Many ISP's are upgrading to the 2002 extensions right now...

Personally, I would never use FTP on a FrontPage website, always, always publish.
When you publish what options have you got set? Changed pages only, All pages, Determined by comparing both copies or determined by your own timestamp? If you only have FrontPage 2000 then I would suggest you upgrade to 2002.
Has the system date on either your PC or the server changed at all? If your PC date was now say 1 year earlier, then it would think that Sep 2001 was more recent than Apr 2001. Or maybe the web host had an incorrect date in the future the last time you publish and this has now been correct but your files on the web host will still be timestamped in the future.
If it is not seeing all the files correctly then take the 'Tools' - 'Recalculate Hyperlinks' on both your copy and the web server copy.
If it has all got out of sync with the web host then maybe the best things would be to take the option to publish all pages as this would re-align everything.
If you just want to publish one or more page then with 2002 you can click on those pages and then right click to take the 'Publish Selected Files'. With 2000 you would have to open your site using FrontPage on both your local PC and the web server and then click and the drag the files from the FP for your local copy to the FP for the web host copy.
