For some reason my site is being displayed funny and I can't figure out why.
Instead of displaying my right shared border it's displaying the body of my
pages twice in 2 coumns. When I load my site (either from the browser "edit
with frontpages" or by opening FP File/Open Web it opens correctly, but when
I publish it to my ftp account it goes back to how it's being displayed now,
the wrong way. I don't know what I should try to figure out why it's
reading it funny.
Any suggestions would be wonderful!

FTP broke FP extensions? If your pages use FP extensions, publish via the http method.

So I noticed a little bit of the problem.....when I open FP I click File/Open
Web and when I bring up a page it doesn't have any of my shared borders
showing. When I go to the actual browser and "edit with frontpage" my right
border isn't showing on the internet, but when I edit with frontpage the
right border shows up. So I noticed in the ftp that my border is not showing
up on the pages there, but when I click on the _borders folder then click on
the right border file it's just fine. So somewhere it's not seeing my right
border.
Any ideas why?

Sorry, duh! It's http://www.momonabudget.com
I've tried publishing to the FTP and from File/Open Web then publish to
http://www.momonabudget.com and neither way has solved it. Should I try
publishing through a different ftp?

Some function of shared border requires that you publish to a server that has the FP extensions via
FP's http mode to http://www.momonabudget.com in which case publishing via FTP will not allow the
function to work.

Everything was always working fine publishing through the FTP. One day it
just started displaying this way and now I can't get it to display correctly.
I tried publishing to the FTP and to My Documents. When I open web through
FP the borders won't display. I've noticed that when it saves it to the ftp
it saves it how it's being displayed on my browser, even though when I "edit
with frontpages" in the browser it shows up in FP how it's supposed to.
Any suggestions where it's going wrong?
 
Check your right border.

The version on the website contains several thousands of these:

/ / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / /
/ / / / / / / / / / /

which may be confusing FP when it saves the page.
Since you have FP extensions installed on the server, you should
publish using FrontPage HTTP method, DO NOT use FTP - FTP will break
the extensions.

Since you do use FTP, what you see in the browser and the web site
should be identical.

Some of the fonts you use (like elementary sf, Kristen ITC, 5thGrader)
will never be seen by most users - they are uncommon and will display
as Times New Roman.

Finally, when you get the page to display correctly, you will have
problems with the absolutely positioned elements in the right border.
Absolute Positioning should not be used with shared borders -
especially not the right shared border.

Basically don't mix using ftp & Publish via http;// method. Use one or the other. Since your site has FP extensions you should only use Publish via http://...

Also..
You have a java hover button that does basically nothing on the page except invoke JVM to start up...just for one glowing button. Your viewers will need to install JVM to see this snazzy effect...otherwise they will see a boring blank gray box.

You may want to look into what this is supposed to be:

<p><img src="ftp://u37798794:[email protected]/MomOnABudget/_borders/mompackb2x.gif"></p>

I dunno what it is looks like an image link to ftp?
 
<img
src="ftp://userid:p[email protected]/MomOnABudget/_borders/mompackb2x.gif">

is not a sensible link to have on a web page (unless there is a good
reason for it) - you may have given away the UserID and password for
your hosting account. Remove the link and ask your host to change
your password.

Change the link to <img src="_borders/mompackb2x.gif">
