So i noticed that file uploading using the form is not possible, my site keeps asking for a username and pass. How to get past this restriction, i couldnt find it anywhere ?

You mean uploading files from the File Manager?

no i mean i created a form in frontpage which contains the file upload component. When i open (in a browser) that page on my site and select a file, i cant upload it because an authenthication window pops up when i click submit. If i remove the file upload component everything works fine.

It sounds like you need a file uploading script that will take care of the file when it's uploaded if I'm understanding this all correctly. Just a form of course is not enough, and the FTP info is due to your script wanting to I believe FTP the data directly into the folder via your PC rather than a script which will do the work for you.

Your form is pointing to a restricted directory.

If you look at the actual HTML for the form, you should see something like

HTML:
<form action='something' method='post' .....>

Please tell us what 'something' is.

Here is the part of the form code

<form method="POST" name="Forma" action="--WEBBOT-SELF--" onSubmit="location.href='_derived/nortbots.htm';return false;" enctype="multipart/form-data" webbot-onSubmit>
<!--webbot bot="FileUpload" U-File="Korisnici/form_results.txt" S-Format="TEXT/PRE" S-Label-Fields="TRUE" B-Reverse-Chronology="FALSE" S-Email-Format="HTML/PRE" S-Email-Address="thepro***@gmail.com" B-Email-Label-Fields="TRUE" S-Destination="Korisnici/" S-Category S-Assignedto S-ReviewStatus B-Process-MetaInfo="FALSE" S-Builtin-Fields="Date Time" startspan S-Date-Format="%d/%m/%y" S-Time-Format="%H:%M" --><input TYPE="hidden" NAME="VTI-GROUP" VALUE="0"><input TYPE="hidden" NAME="_charset_" VALUE="iso-8859-1"><!--webbot bot="FileUpload" endspan i-checksum="55656" -->

This is created in frontpage and(file upload thing) woks fine on some other hosting servers. If i publish the same site here on x10, this form doesnt work. I already tried changing the folder permissions..

This form is pretty clogged up. You should seek in another file editor instead of Frontpage.
If you wish to continue using frontpage, then make sure that the frontpage extensions are enabled on your account.
