Is there a way to configure FrontPage 2003 to allow me to develope
directly on a test server only without having to keep a local copy of
the site on my PC?

Thanks.
 
Yes, the same as with prior versions of FP. Just open the site on the remote
server, as long as the server has the FP2x extensions or SharePoint
services.

I guess that's my problem - no FP extensions. We have been developing
with Dreamweaver which does not use extensions and I was hoping to go
back to FrontPage for my development because it is suppose to co-exist
with Dreamweaver (by locking files when you open them as well as
publish via ftp, etc). I would rather not reinstall the extensions
but if I don't, FP2003 seems to want to recreate the entire test
server on my local PC before I begin editing (does any of this make
sense?). Anyway, if anyone knows a way around installing FP
extensions it would be a big help.

Thanks,

No work around w/ the FP SE - to open a live site and edit it online
But FP2003 does support more intelligent FTP and WevDav
