    While I applaud this post, I must say two things.1. The overuse of carriage returns is rather annoying, there's absolutely no need for a whiteline under every single written line.2. For the love of [insert prefered Deity here] use more punctuation, and capitals.But other then that, nice information there, SM.

    moonwitch1405241479 got a reaction from XRumerTest in Publishing Site With Frontpage Yes, I wrote a tut on frontpage   
    Firstly, I do not use FrontPage, I just installed it to take the screenshots and then make this tutorial on request Ok, so you use Frontpage to create a site, well, that's your choice, but I want to warn you as well. While FrontPage may seem nice, it creates horrible code, sluggish pages and well, it's M$ LOL. For full control without having to know all the code, you can try NVU, 1st Page 2000 or google for HTML Editors.
     
    Fire up FrontPage (I can NOT believe I am typing this).. Anyhow, if you use proxy servers to connect to the net you'll need to complete this step first
    Go to Tools -> Options
    On the General Tab, click on Proxy settings, and set it up, you should know how to do this, otherwise you wouldn't be reading this huh?

     
    So I am going to assume you've created your page already, if not, now is THE time to do it LOL... Anyways, here's what we start off with.

     
    Now you will want to publish it, aye? Well, if you at any point uninstalled your Frontpage extensions, then it will NOT work. So if you left those alone in cPanel, go ahead and go to File -> Publish Web

     
    Enter your domain name, but do not include http://. I don't know why, but then it will not work, you'll get an error. (Well it did on my end, but then again I hate Frontpage). Of course you click on ok
     
    Then you will get a wee screen asking for your username and password, this is your cPanel username and password.

     
    That *should* work ok, and you'll get the FTp screen built in in FrontPage. On that screen you click on Show All >> so that you can browse to the correct folder of your hosting account here.

     
    Of course, you'll need to go to public_html and make sure the files you want to upload are checked. Like this:

     
    Well when that's set, you click Publish and should get this:

     
    Now you should have your site up I know I am over explaining this one, but I just wanna cover ALL bases.

    Lately I've noticed an influx of people who seem to be rather fond of chat slang; eg. ur, m8, l8, kewl, ...
     
    I would like to point out that it *is* indeed frowned upon, this does not show your superior intellect nor does it testify of your maturity. While I understand that it is easier to type this way in chat, it is not ok to do the same in posts here. Mainly because it does not make your post very readable, it often leads to confusion, and in general a lot of people just ignore the post.
     
    You will increase your chances on a speedy, good reply if you take the time to formulate your sentences, use punctuation and for the love of all that is considered holy - just to cover all bases - type in plain English. I don't think that we all are English, in fact I am Belgian, English is my second language, but as long as you try - it is fine by me. Just make the effort of formulating your sentences instead of slapping them on the screen in an incoherent way.
     
    And while I am on this topic, I would like to stress the importance of not overusing the "Return" key. Don't hit your enter-key two or three times after each sentence, it really is redundant. Just one white-line will do to mark the end of a paragrah and the beginning of a new one. You won't cheat the credits script.
