When you open a page with FrontPage all you are opening is the copy in your local temporary internet folder. You wouldn't be able to reload your changes to the server without userid/password.
Same thing happens if I click the Open With button on my IE toolbar though I have multiple options there ranging from FP 2002, FP 2003 Beta, Dreamweaver MX, TopStyle, Visual Studio.NET even Microsoft Word or Excel as well as the old standby Notepad.

I was goofing around with Microsoft FrontPage and opened a web page with it... expecting it to ask a password or something... but it gave me complete access. Can't imagine someone is serving a website without at least authentication. Explains how some pages get hacked. I didn't do anything to that site... but thought how easy it would be if this were a merchant to direct sales from that site to another. Sorry, guess I've been watching too many Oliver Stone movies. :-) ____ • The WDVL Discussion List from WDVL.COM • ____ To Join wdvltalk, Send An Email To: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Send Your Posts To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To set a personal password send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the words: "set WDVLTALK pw=yourpassword" in the body of the email.
