Re: Upload Button

I finally figured out why the File Upload and Group Box features were grayed
out. In the Page Options dialog on the Authoring tab SharePoint Services was
checked, which I assume is the default for whatever reason. For the hell of
it I unchecked it since my web host does not provide SharePoint support.
This one change then made the File Upload and Group Box features available.
I wish the documentation would have mentioned this as I never would have
looked there if you hadn't mentioned looking there concerning the Group Box
problem. There are a few other things that don't seem to be working as they
should but I'm going to do some more playing around before I ask more
questions.

Thanks for putting me on the right track.

The Group Box will be greyed out if Browsers is set to include
Netscape in
Tools->Page Options-Authoring tag (FP2003), or the Compatibility tag
in other versions.

I have not succeeded in finding a way to make File Upload grey out
in FP2003, using server based webs, disc based webs or even a loose
page.

I'm quite confident there isn't a problem with the host's
configuration.
They went into my account and were able to create a page with the
File
Upload feature so I'm assuming things must be fine on the server
end. Is
there anything else that could be causing the problem? Also, I've
noticed
that the Group Box option for forms is grayed out. Could this be a
related
problem?

Thanks.

If it's greyed out on your remote web site, there is something
wrong with
the host's configuration. Could be permissions, can't say for
sure. They
need to review the link I sent you.

Tom, I checked with my webhost and the File Upload feature is
definitely
enabled. However, when I open up the remote website in FrontPage
2003
the
File Upload feature is grayed out. Do I need to have something
other
than
FrontPage 2003 running on my development machine? As I stated
before,
I'm
running Windows XP Home version and I have Office 2003
Professional
installed, if that factors into the equation.

Thanks

Brian

1)The Form Upload Feature must be enabled and configured in the
FP 2002
server extensions by the host
2) You manage the form upload feature by opening your remote web
in
FrontPage, and doing it there.
