Re: Earthlink can't upload in http

You won't explode the internet by trying you know! :-)

FP admin is extremely misunderstood by a lot of hosts.

IF your site truly has FPSE installed ( AND working) you should be able to
Publish via the http method. TRY it FIRST - before resorting to ftp, because
ftp WILL corrupt the extensions.

Good luck!...and post the URL so we can see it. If it doesn't
work...welp...it's time for a new host.
