AlanR Posted April 6, 2004 Posted April 6, 2004 Go in with your ftp program and try to change the permissions on these files. Is this a windows server?

sbusch Posted April 6, 2004 Author Posted April 6, 2004 yes it is a windows server. I have uploaded my catalog folder through MS Frontpage. I do not know how to set my permissions if you could help by giving me some details. Thank you, Steve
