Re: This is not another WYSIWYG thread...

Debra and others:

I probably didn't make myself clear before, (as usual), but I
agree with Debra. As far as I know my Warning about FTP'ing to
Webs using FrontPage Extensions only applies to the FP site
itself. I don't think it bothers anyone else. It just corrupts
the Extensions for the actual site that was using the extensions.

As an example, if you were using Extensions on yoursite.com and
someone FTP'ed to theirsite.com which was hosted on the same
server, there should be no problem. BUT--if you FTP'ed to
yoursite.com, you might corrupt the extensions.

At least, this is my understanding at present.

Again best wishes
