Guestbook editing

[D. Hudson]

I'm creating a guestbook for my site. Is there a way to edit or delete the
remarks that are left? I have the guestbook started and it created a
guestlog.html, but when I go there, I don't see any of my "test" messages? I
just want to be sure to have the ability to remove inappropriate remarks.
Thanks!

Sorry, I forgot to add that I'm running XP Pro and using Office 02 XP.

Open your online site in FP and edit the Guestlog include page

Let me try again, because I don't understand what you are telling me.
I used the FP wizard and chose guestbook. When I did, it created a guestbook
and a guestlog.html file. I published the page and ran a test message while
I was online. I did this by going to my guestbook page and entered the word
TESTING into the space and submitted it. I then chose return to form. When I
refreshed the page it showed my new comment "TESTING".
I still don't understand how I can go in and edit my test message/s? When I
open FP and go to my guestlog.html all I see is: "Form Results Inserted
Here". Where are the comments stored, aren't they on the server where my
site is hosted? This what I don't understand, how do I get to them?
Sorry, I'm still lost!

You can't do it in your Local Site (the one on your PC)
Open your Remote FP Site
- On the Publish Tab look for and click Open Remote Site
Then in the Remote site open & and look for the location/name of the included page (guestlog.html)
- edit it

Thanks Stefan.
I haven't figured out how to open the remote site yet, but I'll keep workin
at it now that I have a basic understanding of what to do!

You open the remote site by:

Open FP
File | Open Web (or Site depending on which version of FP you have)
enter http://www.yourwebsitename.com
you'll be prompted for un/pw
this will open your site "live" - you'll be working with the site directly
on the server.
