Hello

The first step would be in install frontpage in you BT control panel, once the extensions have been installed you would go into your frontpage and follow these steps:

1.In FrontPage, open the Web you want to publish.

2.On the File menu, click Publish Web

3.In the Publish Web dialog box, type the path of the destination Web server for example http://www.domain

4. Click Options to expand the list of options.

5. Specify whether you want to publish only pages that have changed or all pages.

6.Click Publish.

This should publish your site to the web.

Where do I find the control panel to install the extensions?

I have tried to look for this but cant seem to find it on my free webspace area.

There are a few different places to login but probably the quickest way if your planning on managing the hosting account is at https://hosting.hostingbt.com/OS4/index.php . Once you login here you should click site builders and then Frontpage Manager should be one of the first few tools on the list.

I see, my mistake, I missed that you mentioned you were with a free webspace account. In that case you would want to log in to the spot on the main site https://www.bt.com/cmp/public/hub.do?s_cid=btb_FURL_business/youraccount but I don't think there is an application to install Front Page Extensions there, you would need to use the hosted domain, the URL I mentioned earlier, where your domain would be something like domainname.co.uk, if you wanted to use Front Page Extensions
