Hi there, I tried again this morning, and am still having trouble. Oh la! Maybe it is me. I am using Windows Expression ( as recently at May, 2007 for the site I am trying to make a few changes on). This is what I do when I go to publish ( this is a site that we have had on the web for two years; all I want to do is make a change to our calendar page). I go to the publish file under the file tab. Then the small window pops up that says 'Connect to users.rootsweb.com' I type in my user id ( name of my web site) and the password rootsweb gave me. A window from Windows Expression pops up that says, "could not find a web server at users.rootsweb.com on port 21. Please check to make sure that the web server name is valid and your proxy settings are set correctly. If you are sure that everything is correct, than the Web Server may be temporarily out of service." I have looked at everything, tried a few other things, nothing works for me. It is very frustrating; I can do the basics but am not that computer literate, Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

I am using Expression Web and tried to replicate the error message as I have gotten it in the past. Both my freepages site and the www site worked ok so this is from memory. I believe when I got the message in the past, I just clicked OK and was then able to transfer the files. Not quite sure why EW gives you the message but it does. Will try and find out some more and post. pat ---------- Pat Geary, Microsoft MVP - FrontPage We discuss FrontPage and Expression Web http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~gearyfamily/frontpage/ http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~gearyfamily/expression-web/ Genealogy Web Design Tips and Tutorials http://www.genealogy-web-creations.com/ http://www.blog.family-genealogy-online.com/
