Form Creation
I am trying to create a form within my website that will
require a password to access a message board. In other
words, I only want to allow users who identify themselves
to go beyond the page.
When I go to my site, go to the form, fill in the fields
and click on submit, instead of getting access, I get the
following message, [Cannot run the FrontPage Server
Extensions on this
page: "http://www.examplewebsite.com/log-in.htm"]
Can anybody tell me what I am doing wrong or how I can
fix this problem?
Thank you,

re-loading webs
I just did an emergency format and managed to save all of
my web sites that have been created over the
years...problem is that I do not know how to get them
installed so that Frontpage will be able to access them
again. I have tried to copy and paste them , but when I
attempt to access thru FrontPage they do not come up...and
when I check the folders directly it looks like the .htm
has been removed from the actual pages. HELP! Any
thoughts? Thank you in advance for any help! Sue Tag: password Tag: 20996

problem publishing to the web
Let me start by letting you know that I am using FrontPage 2000 with
winXP. I am new to using FrontPage and creating web pages. I created a
personal web page and I am having a problem publishing my site to the
server. I have webspace available through my ISP, Cox cable. I followed
the instructions given by FrontPage and by Cox's website
(http://support.cox.net/custsup/personal_pages/instructions.shtml) and it
appears that I was able to publish it no problem. Through Cox's website I
am able to see that the files are indeed on their server. When I try to
view my website though, http://members.cox.net/jamesclery/, I just get a
screen with info on getting started, the same thing I got before I published
it. Cox does support FrontPage and I have activated FrontPage server
extensions.
Also once I publish the pages I get a dialog box in FrontPage with a
link to view my site. When I select the link, I am asked to log in and then
I get a page with all of the files and folders that I published, but not a
web page. The address is also listed as FTTP: (or ftp:) instead of http:.
I have know idea what the problem could be and being inexperienced with
creating and publishing WebPages I have no idea where to start
troubleshooting. Cox's tech support for this is of no help at all. If
anyone can help or point me in the right direction for troubleshooting I
would appreciate it, maybe someone else who has a personal web page with Cox
cable. Tag: password Tag: 20970

new at database with frontpage.
hello,
i'm new at using a database with frontpage. i've used
frontpage for a while though. i've searched for something
like a tutorial for using databases, but to no avail. i
am helping a friend with a webpage. he wants to start a
VA (Virtual Airline) and he doesn't know anything about
webpages and coding. i said i would do it, and i thought
using a database for storing pilot names, IDs, hours,
ranks, and stuff like that would be easier than anything
else. if one person or a couple people can collaborate on
a way to teach me what to do to make it work. the website
will have a page where the pilot will submit their hours
flown for that flight they were scheduled for, and have a
page to show all the pilots active how many hours, and
their ranks and stuff. i have a database started with a
table and form, but no query. also, if the page is going
to show the pilots, how can i have it not show inactive
pilots? thanks for anybody who helps me and reads this
very lengthy post.

Can't access Excel from FrontPage
I access an excel 'database' from a FrontPage based web.
When I publish to my own (inhouse)server all works OK.
When I publish to the external webserver, it can't access
the spreadsheet. I keep getting errors. "Data source name
not found and no default driver specified".
I tried opening the page in Frontpagefrom the public
server rather than my PC. Worked OK, but when I tried to
edit the database connection in Frontpage, I got an
error:- "The database results region cannot be edited
because the Frontpage database features are not available
on this web."
When I tried to verify the database connection, it came
back with:- "The Frontpage database features are not
available for one of the following reasons: The web
administrator may have disabled them; your server is
running an older version of Frontpage Server Extensions;
or the Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) component may
not be installed on the web server. Please contact your
database administrator."
I understand that MS Frontpage (Version 2000 and after)
is supposed to set up all the database connections
itself, although it needs the ODBC and ADO options
installed.
The Web Hoster tells me Extensions are installed, and all
functions activated.

Populating text box from drop down
I found the following tip (below) on a post of a few days
ago - it's what I want to do - take the value selected
from a dropdown and place it in a text box to query the db.
But when I run the .asp page the value placed in my text
box is [object] - not the value I selected in the
dropdown. What am I doing incorrectly?
Here's the post suggestion and code; my dropdown has one
column of data from a db.
"Use the onchange event of the drop down to populate the
text box:"

this.form.my_text_field.value = this.options
[this.selectedIndex]; }" > Tag: password Tag: 20918
Using Webalizer; all referrers are from links on my own website
I know this is not a specific FrontPage question, but I also know that many
of you FrontPage publishers use hosts that offer Webalizer in your stats
package.
I use the host Ipowerweb. For some reason, all my referrers are from links
on my own website instead of links from other websites. For example, my
number one referrer is the hyperlinked gif that I use to let users return to
the homepage. The Ipowerweb support says this is normal, but I know it is
not. The Webalizer on my last host always showed referrers that came from
other websites.
I would think Ipowerweb has some command line option set wrong or not set
at all. Any users of the Webalizer know what possibly might be happening.
Thanks alot.

Using but not using Frontpage 2002
I asked this once already, got no response to speak of. I've been using
Frontpage for several years, currently FP2002. I use no FP services except
the shared borders. I want to get rid of various "extra" directories etc
that FP 2002 routinely makes that I understand have something to do with the
FP Extensions. I want the cleanest FP code I can get, code that is the
least Frontpage-ized. And I do not want to switch to Dreamweaver, thanks.
So what I'm asking is how to use the FP program without involving ANY of the
FP "extras" or extensions, and how to get rid of all the extra directories
that I won't need cause I'm using none of the extensions.
In other words, how can I use FP and keep the output as standard and
validatable and clean as possible? Tag: password Tag: 20903

bug in frontpage 2002
This is probably not the place to post this but after 20
minutes of looking for a place to report a bug, I gave
up. There is a problem in frontpage 2002 and was there in
earlier releases. If you insert a picture (picture01.jpg)
and publish the page and later change the picture but
keep the same name and publish again, the old picture
will be used. Frontpage will never use the updated
picture when two different pictures with the same name
were used. You have to either come up with a different
name or go to the server and delete the old one. Tag: password Tag: 20890
