 - Truncating dates on active server pages I use active server pages in Front Page, in conjunction with Access. I am using a custom format for dates, "mmm dd", which is supposed to display March 1, 2005 as Mar 01. This works fine "off-line" in Access on reports. But on my website, which reads the dates from a database, the format is 03/01/2005. I like the mmm dd format much better--easier to read, less space used, and while I want the year in the database I don't need it displayed on the web page. Is there some script I could use to give me the desired format? Thanks, Dave Tag: SORT BY: Tag: 50776

 - Want to have picture open on a seperate page? I have a webpage that contains a number of pictures. The pictures on this page are thumbnails. Currently when a visitor clicks on the thumbnail it opens up a new page replacing the gallery page and the user must hit the back button to return to the thumbnails. What I would like is for the selected thumbnail to open up a new page with the full size picture and have the gallery page still open. Thank you Rick Desjardins Tag: SORT BY: Tag: 50772

 - Robots: "index,follow"? I made my website with FrontPage 2003 - http://www.hairloss-reversible.com. My question, though, has to do with the Discus discussion forum I have on my site. Located under Description and Keywords for the ten topics on my discussion forum is the META tag box with four options. I'd like to know which one is best and for what reason. There is a radio button before each option: 1. No Setting 2. Do not index page ("NOINDEX,NOFOLLOW') 3. Index page and follow links ('INDEX,FOLLOW') 4. Custom: the field here is empty Of course I know not to use NOINDEX,NO FOLLOW, but how about the other choices? Tag: SORT BY: Tag: 50762

 - Do I want FrontPage 2003? I have FrontPage 2002 on a computer that I can use. I want to buy FrontPage 2003 for my own computer. 1. Or do I? 2. Will I find improvements that justify the expense? I'm not a power user, but am trying to get there. 3. Does it produce faster-to-load, smaller code? 4. I have my own legal copy of FrontPage 2000. I found the box, but the CD is missing - maybe in one of 75 or so moving boxes in storage. The old computer I had it on is not worth using now. I did register it, and the box shows a serial number. Will I be able to install the upgrade version on my newer computer? 6. How do I ask Microsoft before I purchase the upgrade? Answers to #1 and #6 would be the most helpful.

 - SDK example InitCaps confusion Hi -- trying to program my first FP2003 web component and I'm very confused. I'm not using FPSE or anything fancy, just FTP. Referring to the FP2002 SDK I looked at the Initcaps example. I put that into the _vti_bin directory of my web, recalculated hyperlinks, and inserted the webcomponent as described in the manual. I chopped out the preview paramter from the webbot tag so I can monitor what I'm looking at. In frontpage, it always shows [SmallCaps]. When I upload over FTP it says [Frontpage SmallCaps Component]. I even tried some programs of my own, followed the examples, and the ret.Append("Some sample text") doesn't show up like in the SDK examples.. I dont understand what I'm missing here. The built-in components like Navigation render properly in frontpage, and when they're uploaded via FTP they're static. What is the difference, are the built-in functions setting the preview property maybe? Thanks for the help. -joey Tag: SORT BY: Tag: 50687

 - Deployed Support Hey Im a marine with MSSG31. We push out updates for our website but the thing is, when you open the updated website, it will bring up cached files. And you have to clear your temporary files then refresh in order for the webpage to load. Now I know that you have to clear your temporary internet files and hit refresh, but the common marine mom does not. So she just look at the page and thinks its not updated. I was curious if there is some kind of code you add to the script or some way to stop the website from displaying the the old files. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 - New Windows Setup - Which comes first, development or application environment? Hi: I am going to replace the current primary drive with a new HDD and to perform a clean installation of Windows XP Pro because the current environment is getting slower and some components are messed up with different installation, removal, and updates of applications, Windows service packs, patches, and development packages. And based on the past experiences, I figured some problems seems to be related to the sequence of program installation, such as certain components have been changed or updated by a application or SDK installed later on but have not been updated for all other applications using it which eventually lead to certain problems. So my question is, after the initial installation of Windows XP and performed all updates for device drivers and Windows Update, shall I set up the development environment first or installing applications along with the environment? By saying development environment, it was referred to things such as FrontPage Extension, SharePoint Team Service, SDK, Starter Kits, database, database components, and/or any other components that will be required to develop web applications. By saying applications, it was referred to applications such as FrontPage, Dreamweaver, Office, and so on. I understand that some development components also come with applications and it might be updated when the application is being installed and updated. But my goal is to minimize the chance of system components being messed up as much as possible. Thanks for any advice. Tag: SORT BY: Tag: 50608

 - default folders Using XP Pro and FrontPage 2002. By default Windows sets up a default folder "My Webs" which is used exclusively by FrontPage. I also use Publisher 2000 for quick simple websites. I have chosen to keep all my sites in 1 folder on another larger drive and named it "My Webs". Moved all sites to new folder leavingthe default windows folder "My Webs" empty except for a shortcut to the new "My Webs" folder on the larger drive. Now when opening FrontPage 2002 I not only do not see any folders or sub folders there, it doesn't even show the short cut I created. I can still access them by using the Open Feature. Even the Open last web Feature doesnt open them. I do not want to import all of the folders cause my default drive is small and I want to keep it that way for security reasons. Besides I administer 22 different websites and you can imagine how much room that takes. Also if I were to import the folders any changes made in Frontpage are not updated in the Publisher folders. They are duplicated by the import and not linked for updating. I am not a program Developer so how do i go about changing the default folders in FrontPage 2002. Ps..Changing the Default folder for the templates worked fine. Just need to change the main default opening folder. -- There are no dumb questions, only unanswered one! Tag: SORT BY: Tag: 50600
