Hey,
I just got Frontpage 2003 a few days ago. I tried uploading a simple page, I put it in the public_html file and it won't show up, does anyone know why that is, is there something wrong with C-panel.??

Did you publish you page, or did you use an FTP program? What is the name of the file? I dont think there is a problem with cpanel, its a very good clean program.

I published my page, I tried with IE to upload it from that but it still didn't work, i am not shure why. The name of the file is, index.html. I am not shure what to do.

are you getting an error page, if so what does it say, what number example 404, or does it say the page you requested can not be found. how long have you had you webspace?, did you just register you domain?
Have you setup your nameservers? this will help narrow it down to a frontpage/page issue.

I am not getting a error page, It just say, Page Could Not Be Displayed, I have had this for like a half a year or so and this domain has had other things on it and it has worked. I dont know what you mean, have you setup your nameservers, I dont know how to do that either.

Dont worry about that, that has already been done if you can see other pages. Try this, check and see that the "i" in index.html is in lower case, upper case will not work. IF thats ot the problem let me know, and we can try something else.

"Page cannot be displayed" sounds like IE's generic error message. To see the REAL error do this:
goto Tools -> Internet Options -> Advanced Tab
and make sure "Show friendly http error messages" is unchecked.

Does anything change?

That button is checked...


Update: One the Server does "Frontpage Extensions" have to be installed if i am uploading from Frontpage??

Yes the must be installed, but if they were not, you would not be able to publish in the first place

That button should be unchecked.

Yes, frontpage extensions need to be installed on the server in order to publish your site from within frontpage.

Alright, I unchecked the button and its still not there. I am still trying one solution.

Do you see a different error message now?

Thanks to both of you, you helped me fix my problem, thanks so much.
