Hello,
I'm new to FrontPage 2003 and I am having an issue with my shared borders. I
wrote my entire website in FrontPage 2003 and included some pretty intense
text as a top border with mouse-over drop down menues, etc. However, when I
published the site, the borders are nowhere to be found.
I've tried deleting the site and doing a new publish - doesn't work.
I've checked to be sure I have the </body></html> in the text - it's their.
I can view the borders and every page perfect within FrontPage 2003 but not
when I publish it. Ideas?
I talked to one person who suggested using the Include Page feature - but I
have so many pages, and the links could change, it just seems like so much
work.
Another person suggested using Dynamic Pages - which I have never used
before. I'm not sure how to get this all to work.

Help anyone?

Shared borders and Include Pages are design time tools w/ the content (inside the <BODY> tags) of the Shared Border or Include page
"embedded" or included as html in your pages when you save any of the file(s) using them (or save the borders / include pages
themselves)

FP converts your page(s) to a series of tables to include the Shared borders, (which are really just a special case of Include
pages)
But FP can not build those tables if either your shared border page content or main page content has illegal html or broken tag
pairs
- usually due to missing </body></html> tags, or unmatched table / cell tags (unclosed table / cell tags), or some other unclosed
html block element

If you can see them using File Preview in Browser they will publish in as part of your pages

If you can't see them using File Preview in Browser, it's because FP can not build the included content tables, so you need to
validate and correct your broken html

PS
A DWT would be a better solution
