This article was previously published under Q238467



SYMPTOMS
When you browse to a page with a .htm or .html file extension in Internet Explorer 5.0, the Edit with Microsoft FrontPage option in Internet Explorer 5.0 is not available.

Note: The Edit button may be disabled (greyed out) in the browser.



CAUSE
Content Expiration is enabled in IIS and is set to expire immediately.



WORKAROUND
Set content to expire after a minimum of one minute in IIS. To change this setting, do the following:


 * 1) Click Start and Point to Programs.
 * 2) Point to Windows NT 4.0 Option Pack.
 * 3) Point to Microsoft Internet Information Server.
 * 4) Click Internet Service Manager.
 * 5) Right-click the virtual server and click properties.
 * 6) On the HTTP Headers tab, select the second radio button and set Content Expiration. Click OK.



MORE INFORMATION
Content Expiration is disabled by default. This means that any expiration set on your virtual server was set manually. Internet Explorer will not allow you to edit the content, because it is old (or expired) content, which may no longer be valid.
