80% of source code page blank
I am having problems editing my website and found that the source code has a
huge gap in it, on the home page. www.springhousecandles.com It shows up on
explorer, but not on Mozilla. I have to edit through explorer. I edit right
on the server, they told me to save the site on my computer or a disk, and
they would fix it. Is there any way to fix this big gap without my server
wiping out my website and me having to load it again? How do I save my site
on a disk from the frontpage server? Think that I should have a back up.
Thanks so much Tag: FrontPage 2003 Training Tag: 64075
Access hyperlinks not showing correctly
I'm creating a database in Access that I want to link to a webpage using
Frontpage. The database contains scholarship information, so I want to
display the scholarship name on the webpage, but have it link to the PDF file
that has a description of the scholarship.
I've figured out how to get a hyperlink into an Access database field, but I
am having problems with the results that are coming up on the webpage. I'm
following the instructions that say to put the TITLE that you want the viewer
to see, then a "#" sign, and then the FILENAME. What is coming up, though,
on the webpage is the entire string.
For example, I type into the database: John Smith
Scholarship#smithscholarship.pdf.
I want "John Smith Scholarship" to show on the webpage as a hyperlink and
then link to the smithscholarship.pdf that is in the same folder. What shows
on the webpage is "John Smith Scholarship#smithscholarship.pdf" as a
hyperlink. How do I get rid of the file name?
The second problem I'm having is linking to the PDF that is in the same
folder as the database and webpage. I've tried using "John Smith
Scholarship#smithscholarship.pdf" and "John Smith
Scholarship#\smithscholarship.pdf" and "John Smith
Scholarship#/smithscholarship.pdf." The only thing that works and links to
the file is if I use the entire web address: ""John Smith
Scholarship#http://myschool.com/smithscholarship.pdf" But there again, it
shows the entire string on the webpage instead of just what I'm telling it to
show for text, which is "John Smith Scholarship."
I hope that all makes sense. Please tell me why it's not working. I've
followed all the instructions in Access and Frontpage Help, I thought... Tag: FrontPage 2003 Training Tag: 64074
Graphics do not display
Hi Everybody,
A. I have Front Page 2002 SP3.
B. I have WINDOWS XP with SP2 and Internet Explorer V9.0.2900.
I have a large number of HTM files which I downloaded from the COREL
graphics site over the years. Recently, I have found that when I open most
of these files, the images do not display. They do not display in Internet
Explorer, Front Page 2002, or Word XP. Yet at one time the images did
indeed display along with the text. The original sub-folders with the same
name still are in the same parent folder as the HTM file.
Strangely enough, right clicking on the blank image and then clicking on
properties, correctly identifies the image -- usually a JPEG or GIF.
However, the only display within the file is a blank box with a red X.
A few HTM files do open properly -- i.e. the images are displayed when
the file is opened. Most do not. I can open the images in the sub-folder
separately with a graphics program like Adobe PhotoShop.
1. What could have happened?
2. Is there a way to trouble shoot this problem?
3. Is there a way to tell the file to display the image along with the text?
Thanks for any help and suggestions.

Query Database with 2 dropdowns
I am trying to create a webpage that will allow users to specifiy what data
they would like to look at in a database by using two dropdown menus. I have
followed the wonderful instructions at
http://spiderwebwoman.com/tutorials/doubledropdown.htm. I can get it to work
on the demo database, but not with my data base.
The first page is grade. The users selects a grade level and the results are
suppose to go to subject page. The page displays but the dropdowns are blank.
Below are the SQL statements for each dropdown:
"SELECT DISTINCT grade FROM StateAchievementStandards WHERE
(grade='::grade::')"
"SELECT DISTINCT subject FROM StateAchievementStandards WHERE
(grade='::grade::')"
I have gone over steps many times and I can't see why it isn't working.
Hopefully somebody else can see my error.

FP View of CSS Site
I am trying to learn the use of CSS and am getting along slowly but
surely. One issue I can't figure out is the design view in FP.
I created a one page site from a template with CSS attached.
Everything works fine but in the design view, the page appears as if
there is not enough room on the 'table'. The text and buttons wrap to
the next line and a strange column appears to the right of the area.
When I click on preview, everything appears fine as does when I publish
the site. If nothing else it has got me working a lot closer to the
coding but it is a bit infuriating. Any enlightenment would be
appreciated.

FP Templates & Javascript/Image Rollovers
I've made a nice banner with image rollovers for the top of my page in Adobe
Photoshop 6/ImageReady. Since I have triple-digit number of pages to
create/update, I made a dynamic template to help speed-up page creation and
quicken page updates. I had ImageReady export the HTML and setup the display
of the images in CSS (instead of making a table), plus it created some
JavaScript to handle the rollovers.
Everything works fine, except that the relative links (i.e.-
images/bannerimgs/image_01.jpg) don't change to reflect where it is in the
site's directory tree. Therefore, if I make the template off the root, then
apply it to a page in a subdirectory, none of the relative links work because
it's still showing the same path as if it was from the root. FrontPage will
change the relative links in hyperlink tags in the page, but not in the
JavaScript.
The only work-around I've been able to come up with is to create multiple
templates of the same template, just change the javascript relative URLs in
each template depending on what page it will be applied to. This to me seems
like an inefficient way of doing it. Is there any way of making the
javascript code more "universal" while still maintaining the relative paths
so that I can use just ONE template for all pages - even ones buried 2 to 3
subfolders deep? Is there a way to "fool" FrontPage? I'd rather avoid using
static URLs. Tag: FrontPage 2003 Training Tag: 64008

Sync Problems
Using FP 2000 with a Linux ISP and Front Page Extensions enabled.
I have been using this setup for some time but the file sync doesn't seem to
function the way I thought it would.
I have at least one file that always is uploaded even though this file has
not changed in over 3 months.
I updated another file with the same name but with a newer time stamp and it
did not get uploaded. I had to change the name in order to force it to
update. FP did recognize that the old file was still on the server and ask
me if I wanted to remove it, so that works OK.
I noticed there are about 40 files, images, button gifs, etc that are on the
server but are not on my devl system any more, why don't these guys get
deleted?
Is there a way to synchronize these two systems so that only files currently
in use are present on both systems?

Title*: Mr Mrs Ms Miss (with radio buttons to select)
First Name*: (with a text box for name)
Surname*: (with text box for surname)
Then this is part of the php that is working but it only e-mails the Titles
not the text box info.

Frontpage 2003 Bug, IE6 Bug or Windows Font Bug?
I have tried everything I can think of to figure this out. When I use Arial
1 (8 pt) for a vertical menu, and if the first character is a capital "W",
when viewed in IE6, the first two stacked pixels forming the top left corner
of the "W" are cutoff (cuts off pixels horizonally by one pixel). I have
confirmed this by looking at the overlay files. Unfortunately, just editing
the overlay files does not cure the problem.
Can someone see if they can reproduce the problem. I am wondering if it is
just my computer, or a bug in FP, IE, or Windows. Here are the steps (takes
about two minutes, maybe less if you are a proficient FP user).
1) Start FP 2003, and create a new site using the Corporate Presence
Wizard. Just keep clicking Next to get through the steps, and finally
Finish.
2) After the site is created, go to Format, Theme, and select the Website
Default Theme which is Journal.
3) Click the down arrow, and select Customize, click the Graphics button,
then for item select "Vertical Navigation". Click the Font tab, and change
the font to Arial size 1 (it is critical that this font be used, since the
other fonts and sizes appear to be OK).
4) Click OK twice to save change, and rename theme to another temporary
name.
5) Click the Website tab at the top, and click the Navigation button at the
bottom.
6) Right click on "News", and select Rename. Change the name from "News"
to "WNews". Make sure you use a capital "W", not lowercase.
7) Hit the F12 key to preview the page in the browser.
Does your system cut the top left of the "W" off?
Thanks everyone!
