I'm able to view my website myself, but others can't see it?

When I visit the site, everything appears normal but when other do so, they
can only see the frames - no content.

I'd be grateful for any advice as this is driving me MAD!

Thanks in advance. Web address below.

Every frame I can see has <HTML></HTML> and nothing else.

This must mean I fall into the everyone else category.

When you visit the site, check the HTML, is everything pointing to something
on your C:\ drive (which may be why you can see it, but we can't).

Hi Simon.

Take a look at the code from your Frame page:

<base target="_main"
href="file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Simon%20Kinsey/My%20Documents/My
%20Webs/SportingStats/LeftEdge.htm">

<frameset rows="146,*,30">
<frame name="top" scrolling="no" noresize target="contents"
src="file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Simon%20Kinsey/My%20Documents/My%
20Webs/SportingStats/Header.htm" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0">
<frameset cols="267,*">
<frame name="contents" target="main" src="LeftEdge.htm" marginwidth="0"
marginheight="16" scrolling="auto">
<frame name="main"
src="file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Simon%20Kinsey/My%20Documents/My%
20Webs/SportingStats/FrontPage.htm" scrolling="auto" target="">
</frameset>
<frame name="bottom" scrolling="no" noresize target="main"
src="file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Simon%20Kinsey/My%20Documents/My%
20Webs/SportingStats/Footer.htm" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0">

<body>

Note that all of the paths in it are poiting to locations in your local hard
drive. This can occur when, for example, you open a page on your computer to
add to it, and don't open the local web first. FrontPage is capable of
working with both local disk-based web pages and web sites, as well as
remote ones. If you don't open a web first, FrontPage has no context to
determine how to set the links up other than your local hard drive.

This is what i get in the source.

<base target="_main"
href="file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Simon%20Kinsey/My%20Documents/My%20Webs/SportingStats/LeftEdge.htm">

Make sure that is changed to something like <base target="_main"
href="LeftEdge.htm"> All references to c:\\ will have to be changed.
 
When working in FP, you must always have a web open.
