We just installed a SSL certificate so users can send
their sign in information securely. However, I can't
figure out how to make a secure connect with FrontPage.
In other words I have an intro page called "default.htm"
and I want the user to push a button and go to a secure
page called "signin.htm." What do I need to do in the
push button's link field to make the next connection
secure?

You need to use an absolute hyperlink to the page, which begins with
"https://..." instead of "http://..." The "https" tells the server to use
SSL.

Also, make sure that links going FROM the secured pages are absolute,
beginning with "http://" in order to prevent using the SSL throughout your
web site.
