Frontpage publishing question

I have been using FTP

[bghtn]

Because I did not know any better I started FTP'ing a site which I had created in Frontpage. I would like to start publishing the site through frontpage but have run into many errors. One bit of information I was able to find through search suggested to go into my public_html file and delete all files in there and then publish through frontpage. Does this sound feasible? Can you think of any reason not to do this?
I have cpanel as a control panel.
Thank you

When you did a FTP you removed your FP extensions. Reinstall the extensions and you will be able to publish to www.yourdomain.com.

Thanks Poppy,
Do I need to delete everything on my webserver? When I publish will FP publish everything and then track the changes from then out?

Best to delete the site, reinstall the FP extensions on your account and then publish from FP.
