Publish to Hard Drive w/FP-Extensions

[Jim T]

Attempting To:
------------------
Publish (opened with "open web") FP-2000 web pages in C:\Stoneham\My Web2\
to (a directory created via windows explorer) C:\Stoneham\webtown\. with FP
Extensions page includes counter and so I can use/test/learn ASP.

Destination directory is NOT a configured as a web directory (not sure how
that's done)

Results:
----------
Info. pop-up indicating certain features on pages will not function (i.e. FP
extension features). Opening published site show counter not working (and
assume ASP does not function either).

Environment:
------------------
Dell laptop 9300
Windows XP SP2 (updates up-to-date)
Front Page 2000 (upgrade from 98)
IIS ver 5.1

How (if possible) can I publish the web to my hard drive (I've been all
though the KB, e.g. 303254) and still no luck.

If so, will the local server use the FP-Extension to display the counter and
ASP results?

Is there parameters I need to change on the destination folder?
(I've been told not to publish to the default web (c:\inetpub\wwwroot).

You need IIS installed on the machine and then install the extensions.

IIS is only available with Windows XP PRO
If you have XP Professional, install IS via Add/Remove programs > windows
components.

You would then publish your web to http://localhost/webname
Or to http://username/webname

Now, you've got me wondering. And maybe I can learn something new?!*

I use only http://localhost Why is the /webname needed at the end?

because you can have more than one subweb under localhost.
http://localhost/maryhartman
http://localhost/marymary
etc...

To those who have reponded I apologize for not correctly identifying my
system environment...

I do have Dell pre-installed XP-Pro SP-2 w/all updates (not the Home ver)
and IIS ver 5.1. I have installed FP Server Extensions (not sure of ver #)
via IIS.

C:\Stoneham\My Web2\mytestweb would be a "disc-based" web - no server
needed.

http://localhost/mytestweb would need IIS with FP extensions installed.

You need a webname if you have multiple webs.
http://localhost/webname1

http://localhost/otherweb

http://localhost/yetanotherweb

and so on.
