I am trying to find the directions on adding "Upload Photo" to my web page.
Is this possible in Front Page 2003?

Open in FrontPage. Insert>Picture>From File> then browse to your image
located on your computer.
 
If you want users to upload photos then you need to be hosted on a Windows IIS web server that has
the FP2002 extensions and the host must allow you to use the function.

Actually, I am writing a web page and want to add this to my web page.
I want to allow others to add a photo to my web site. Can I do that? I am
using FP 2003 and have Front Page Extensions installed on the server.

Thanks

Use the upload file component (if your host allows) from Insert > Form >
Upload File Component.

If just anyone is going to upload photos, then you need to make sure your
host allows "annonymous" uploads, otherwise I think it prompts for the
username and password for the hosting account, and only allows the webmaster
(or hosting account owner), basically, to upload the files.

This component is pretty basic, and I don't think you can restrict the file
type.

This will mostly only work on Windows Servers (unless the host has the
component enabled on Unix servers).

www.hotscripts.com - try searching for an "upload file" script for your
server (ASP, .Net, PHP, Perl, etc).
There are thousands of resources on the net - just takes a bit of searching
around.
 
Isn't the OP asking about "uploading files from a web site" (using the form
upload "file" component, not publishing image files to the site?)
 
The FP Upload Component is only supported under Windows IIS / FP2002 extensions.
