If you are just learning, please consider learning “current”, and “standard” technology - it is no harder to learn, but you can use that knowledge anywhere.
FLASHFXP DRAMHOST HOW TO
There are many tutorials out there that discuss all of this, and I’m happy to answer a specific question if you run into trouble, but I’m just not up for trying to explain how to use FrontPage on a non-Ms*oft server. I’m sorry, I just can’t help you with FrontPage (I used it for a couple of years in the late 90’s), as using it properly in conjunction with an apache webserver, requires an elemental understanding of how webpages are assembled and how they are served.

Similar, but much better (and standard) tools for creating webpages in a WYSIWYG way, are KompoZer and NVU.īoth are “free software”, both in “free beer” and “free as in freedom”, produce reasonably valid HTML (much better than FrontPage), and produce code that will work portably across a wide range of web servers. That product is no longer being developed by Ms*ft (search the web, or these forums, or the DH wiki for more info on that), and support for it’s specific features is spotty, at best, on any server other than an “windows” server (DH uses Debian Linux). If you are just learning how to do this, I can not advise you strongly enough to not use FrontPage. If you avoided the use of such things, and just built a site in FrontP*ge using standard HTML, these extensions are not needed, and what I just described will work fine. If you used anything that requires any Ms ft specific stuff, that stuff will not work on a non-MS server unless what are called "FrontPge" extensions are installed. You can “turn on” these extension from within your Control Panel, but I think you should read the rest of this post before you do so.
FLASHFXP DRAMHOST INSTALL
Last time I checked, DH will install FrontP*ge extensions on your account, but they cripple other functions normally available on your account, and they really just don’t work very well in a modern hosting environment. You can use FrontP ge to create webpages that run on “standard” servers, but it was designed to create pages that require MSft servers, or extensions. Is there something I might need to turn on in my account? “Select” them and then use your program’s menus, or drag-n-drop, to send those files “up” to the DH server directory. Now shift your attention to the other “pane” or “section” of your FTP program, and find the files you want to upload (index.htm(l), graphics.gif, etc.). Navigate/click your way into that directory, and you should see that it is empty (if you have never uploaded to it before). It will have a few files in it, and a directory (folder for wind*ze users) with the same name as your domain.
Ready, set, go! “Connect” to that set-up domain, and you will be shown a list of the user’s “base” directory on the DH server. Leave other settings in the FTP program at defaults for now (port 21, remote directory is usually “blank”, etc.
FLASHFXP DRAMHOST PASSWORD
Set the pasword to the password for that user - youeither set it when you created your user account, of DH emailed it to you when you added the FTP user. Set the user name to your FTP user name, as displayed in the DH Control Panel under “Users” -> Manage Users (if you have a new account, and you are just starting out, you likely only have one. How you do this varies from program to program, but the “help” should get you through that - check out the “how to connect” help. In your FTP client program, Set the “Host name” or “url” for the client to connect with to that of your domain (“yourdomain.tld”).
Obtain and install an FTP or sFTP client program on your computer, and “run” it. Well, the steps are really pretty simple:
