Suggest you post this to the InfoPath newsgroup as it not a FP related issue.

I'll go ahead and try to answer as I have a nagging feeling that the InfoPath
newsgroup will say to come here....

As far as I know, InfoPath 2003 cannot create functional forms for display
in the browser. I believe you can save your form as an HTML form, but the
only thing that will do is display the controls (ie. checkboxes, radio
buttons, text areas, etc). It won't actually save or read data unless you
write some code (probably ASP) to make it work, and even then it would be
tricky to recreate the functionality of InfoPath. InfoPath 2007 is supposed
to support browser-based forms, but it has yet to be released for general
consumption.
 
And of course, it would help if I gave you an explicit answer to your
question....

In short: Using InfoPath 2003, you can't do it. Using InfoPath 2007, you
might be able to do it, but since IP2007 hasn't been released, I can't really
say *how* you might do it. My guess is that if the form is published to a
particular location, you just make the appropriate link to it from your pages
in FrontPage.
