I have a website due for class at 7am. It's 5:37. I haven't slept for over 48 hours. The website is done. Now, all I have to do is download it to the server. But, whenever I try to publish the site it asks for a password for the remote web site (ok, I have that) but then one for FrontPage. I didn't set-up a password for front page! I have tried every possibility that I can think of and it's not letting me in. what do I do now? Is there a file that I can delete the password from?
*freaking out*
This is the only project for this class and it has to be in on time. If you have any suggestions....

Thank you for the links- but I don't have those items in my menus.
It's not working. and it's due in 55 minutes. My server place says not to ftp the files if they were created in frontpage. crap. i hate computers. i hate graduate school.

Can you reinstall frontpage? (after backing up all your files of course). I remember what homework deadlines are like, I hope it all turns out well for you.

Well, it's too late now, but you could use an FTP client other than FrontPage to move the html files to the school's servers. And avoid using MS products for anything important in the future. :\

I agree -- I would use something like WS_FTP to upload the pages onto the server.
Most likely you are getting this because the server you are going to either 1) doesn't have the FrontPage extensions installed in allow publishing up directly from FrontPage, or 2) they have it security blocked for some reason.
That's why I'd try something other than the FrontPage publish feature to upload it.
After a 2 hour nap, I am much more sane. 7am cane and went and nothing was submitted but desperate e-mails to my professor.
Farmgirl- you hit the nail on the head- I saw the password thing the first time, freaked out and deleted all my files (including the extenstions) and that was my problem...well that and using the wrong username. But customer support helped me with that.
Vwiggen- thanks for the toolbar add-ins- I knew they had to be somewhere.
It's not up yet, and I'm sure there are kinks to work out, but I got past the password!!! Yay!
You all are great! Thanks!
