Author Publish to webhost using http rather than ftp to make form work

HELP! I am trying to publish a simple website (which includes a registration
form) to ipowerweb's server. I followed both Publisher 2002's help steps to
set up the ftp (which appeared to work fine) and the web host's method for
publishing to ftp (which also appeared to work fine). I turned on the FP
extensions as instructed. However, when you click "submit" on the form, you
get a "page not found" page. I researched this on the publishermvps.com site
and found that I am supposed to publish using http instead of ftp, but there
are no instructions on how to do this using Publisher 2002. Can someone tell
me how to do this? The tech support people at ipowerweb can't.

I forgot to mention that my website is www.fullcircleparenting.com if you
want to try the form for yourself and see the page error I'm talking about.
thanks!

Allison, There are two articles on publishing your website using Pub 2003
that will likely be the same for 2002, and hopefully help you troubleshoot
your issues.
