The JavaScript is very primitive. Its essentially

function NewPage()


                        var passname=document.myform.tit.value
                         var passage=document.myform.hed.value
                         var passbody=document.myform.bod.value

                         myWin = window.open ("about:blank", "myWin");
                         myWin.document.open ();
                         myWin.document.write ("<html><head>");
                         myWin.document.write ("<meta name='created by'
content='Web Page Maker'>");
                         myWin.document.write ("<meta name='Version'
content='version 1.0'>");
                         myWin.document.write ("<meta name='where can i get
web page maker'

content='http://www.baillie951.freeserve.co.uk/WPMaker - Its free'>");
                         myWin.document.write ("<title>" + passname +
"</title>");
                         myWin.document.write (""+ passage +"");
                         myWin.document.write ("" + passbody + "");
                         myWin.document.write ("</body></html>");

                   }

and it doesn't upload a thing.

you could make this a lot more sophisticated and to include your HTML. But
as
stated before your problem is the upload.

As for the other site all it does is for a URL to connect to an FTP site
again it does no upload. I've looked in my "O'Reilly: JavaScript the
Definitive Guide"
and can't see any way of doing an FTP upload in JS but I could be wrong.
