It seems everyone assumed you were talking about a website – so asked for a link to that website.

This might help:

From the PowWeb site:
We currently offer Microsoft FrontPage 2003 for those customers who have used it in the past, but encourages all customers using it to design and manage their website to consider alternatives. We will be moving to end support and availability of this product in the very near future.

Sounds like it's time to move on. ;)
Have you tried the free Coffee Cup HTML Editor?
Also, the paid version has built in FTP, for the whole site or individual files. Makes it fast and easy to switch photos, etc.

Lew, you should have mentioned that this was for ebay right away. Yes, I assumed you were talking about a website. But Paintbrush obviously found the answer for you in the link she quoted.

I checked the link and I am doing what is suggested there by way of coffee cup (CC). I place the photo into a file which is picked up by the left side of CC than drag it to the right side of CC this should now be on my host server. I than drag the photo to front page and add the extensions. I have done it this way for several years, hundreds of times maybe thousands of times. It seems to me that CC is not actually connecting with powweb.com. or uploading to them.

If the images have been added from your pc straight to frontpage then that will be the problem, you will need to host them with someone like photobucket.com first and copy the URL's across to the html.

Have you tried hosting the photos the photos somewhere else as suggested above?
Have you tried asking about this in the eBay forum (linked to above)?

Also, have you gone to your hosting control panel to see if you can browse to upload files from within your file manager? Many hosts have this function. This could help pinpoint the problem.

As support for Frontpage quickly fades away, I'm sure many things that have worked before won't work quite the same anymore. I don't know when Pow Webs will end Frontpage support – or if it already has, you might check with them so at least you'll know if if that's the issue.

Let us know if you find anything out :)

Scott, Niger, Paintbrush, thanks for all your help and suggestions! The last suggestion pin pointed the problem, I went to my Powweb file manger and checked the files I have been working on, Coffee Cup is doing the job the files have been uploaded to Powweb, the problem seems to be at Powweb. It was late last night and the tech support was not able to fix the problem so he passed it on to the morning shift. I'm waiting for an answer from them.
Best Regards,
Lew
