    - Computer Website Backup Question Thanks for all your help! I have a question about backup up the website on my computer. I transfer files from my home to work computer over the summer. I basically just copy them to a cd then copy them back to my work computer. When it gets to my website files it tells me the files are too long to maintain julian format because they are over 64 characters I believe, and did I want to continue. The file names that are long are the ones that include copy_of_arcs in them. Are these files ones that are created automatically as pages are opened, and thereby don't really need to be copied to the cd? If I do need to make sure they are copied, what would be the best way to do this? I presume I would need to go chagne the names of the .htm pages so they won't be created so long? Or should I be copying my site in some other manner? Thanks, Kathy Tag: Updates on FP2003 Tag: 43058

    - FP2003 Data Interface I have tried to set up a database to work with a FP2003 web site on a MS 2003 etterprise server. I can get teh results page to work but it will not allow for data entry in to the access db file. I constantly get the "Database Results Wizard Error". I have set the site to have relitive paths and the submission and database editor pages come up but show the error. I even went to the Microsoft site and did the complete how to page "How to Use an Existing Database with the Database Interface Wizard in FrontPage 2003" using the nortwind example and I get the same error.

    - Thumbnails not always opening... I'm using FP2002 with XP and I'm experiencing a glitch with the thumbnails... I'm wondering if there is a fix for it. Here's the problem: I have pages with text and some thumbnailed images throughout. All of the pictures come from the same folder yet some of them will open and some won't when I check the published page. I end up having to go back in and delete the ones that didn't open then put them back in again and republish. This is ANNOYING... especially because I did nothing differently the second time around. Any suggestions?? Thanx! Tag: Updates on FP2003 Tag: 42993

    - FrontPage 2000 creating templates with includes within subwebs I am now creating shared templates for my web within FrontPage 2000. It appears that FrontPage seems to be saving the template files within my C drive at the following location... C:\Documents and Settings\lt012\Application Data\Microsoft\FrontPage\Pages When I choose the 'open' option from the file menu however I can see a _sharedtemplates folder within the web. This is not visible however when looking directly at the folder menu within FrontPage. Very confusing! I tried using a different machine networked to mine and realised that these files were available in FrontPage using that machine as well. So I decided everything was OK..... Until I created templates for the pages within my subwebs. After creating the new template for my first subweb I went to Page - 'new' to create a new page using the new template for that web. Unfortunately the includes are not loading within the template for the subweb. For every include there is an error message 'Couldn't open file'. When the page has loaded everything has loaded fine except the includes which appear with this message '[fpweb:///top_nav.htm]' as if it can't find the location of the includes. I would love to hear from anyone who may be able to help. Many thanks in advance. Tag: Updates on FP2003 Tag: 42991

    - Can't delete mailto: hyperlink My website, done in Front Page 2000, contains a form that customers may use to place orders. When they hit the submit button, it sends the order to me via e-mail. I changed the e-mail address the order goes to. However, when I go to view hyperlink in Front page, it still shows the old mailto: hyperlink as well as the new one. The problem is that I am unable to delete this e-mail hyperlink in View hyperlinks. When select it, FrontPage will not let me delete it. I even want to Reports, view broken hyperlinks, but it is not there, perhaps because it is an e-mail hyperlink. Can you tell me how I may remove e-mail hyperlinks after I change to mailto: e-mail address? Your help would be greatly appreciated. Frank D'Amico Tag: Updates on FP2003 Tag: 42967

    - Database connection for usename and password which reveals their criteria? Hi, Hoping that someone can help in this matter. Just to explain the scenario so you may understand better. We are an estate agents selling houses. We are encouraging people to register online for e-mail updates. At present it is a simple system by a form that e-mails itself to me and i enter information intoa database. This is going to change. The first bit I have achieved , but the second phase is where I need help. A person will register their information, such as name, contact details and their requirement for houses but selecting it in tick boxes and the areas they are looking to buy in. I get them to enter a password field as well. What I want people to be able to do is to edit their criteria themselves and change their info. So creating a login page where the username is the e-mail address and obviously the password is stored in the database. So when the user enters their e-mail address and password it takes them to a page where they can check and alter their registered information that is stored in the database. This then updates the database record automaticaly. Also giving people the option to delete themselves. Please can anyone suggest the best way of going about this. Thanks in advance, Luke Tag: Updates on FP2003 Tag: 42963

    - Printing page width I badly need some helpful advice. I have done many websites now, but one of the problems I have is deciding about the width of the site. In some cases I have used tables and set the table width to 800 pixels because I want the site to be fixed and not float around if people stretch or shrink the browser window. In other cases, I like the site to be 100% of the screen and yet look good whether the window is maximised or made smaller. It is often a case of deciding on the design. However, the problem I am having is that when people try to print a website which is of a set pixel size, for example 800 pixels. a lot of text and graphics gets chopped off the right hand side. Can anyone give me some idea of the best width to use and whether it is better to fix the width or make it a percentage. Thanks Laura TD Tag: Updates on FP2003 Tag: 42955

    - Weird problem, HELPPPPPP! I have a problem using an old Java menu applet called raisedlinks, although I don't think it is the applet, but rather the path I'm using. I'm trying to pull up a menu from the applet for a website I'm working on. I can put in an existing website, and it will pull up fine everytime. The problem comes when I try to open a new htm file from within the applet. I CAN do this if the htm file is on the web somewhere, but I CANNOT do it from my working directory on my pc. I'm merely entering the name in the location such as value="news.htm", but I get an error which reads, "cannot open HTML page nullnews.htm". Any help would be appreciated, as it isn't very practical to program this thing with all my files having to be accessed from our website. Ed Tag: Updates on FP2003 Tag: 42951

    - How do I implement a document download web site with FrontPage 200 I have an existing directory structure of document files on the same server where I will publish the website. The top level directories are for each year, then there are sub-directories for each quarter. Inside the directories for each quarter are sub-directories that are named by their corresponding order number such as "12345678-SD850-01". Inside these sub-directories are the document files (pdf, Word, Excel) that I want to make available for download. I want to make this website as simple as possible. I would like the user to only provide the order number (which will match the sub-directory that contains the files for download), then I want to display a page with links they can click to download the files. I have already created the first page that has a text entry box with the submit and reset buttons. That was easy. I am not sure of the best way to proceed for the searching of the directories or how to display the document files for download once I find the directory path. I was hoping that I could do everything within FrontPage, but it is looking like I will need to use ASP, VBScript, or JScript and I am kind of a newbie to this stuff. If anyone has any sample code or can point me to some good sources of info on this type of implementation, it would really be appreciated. I have tried searching Office Online Help, but could not find anything. Thanks, Conrad Tag: Updates on FP2003 Tag: 42941

    - chat&msg-boards: FP Extensions v. SharePoint (on Unix) Question: Short form: FrontPage(for development) + Unix server w/FP2002 extensions + [?] = ability to build chat and message board functionality into a site. Background: My ISP claims to have FP 2002 Extensions for both its UNIX and Windows hosting plans. I would like build a site with a message board and chat functionality. I've never seen the "Discussion Web" from earlier FPs, and KB281595 makes it sound like it's been superseded by "Discussion Board." Other concerns may limit us to a UNIX plan. 1. Can chats and message boards be created with FP (and FP 2002 extensions) only? (i.e. OS of server doesn't matter as long as FP2002 extensions are there?) 2. If not, and SharePoint Services (or Team Services) is required, is it something additional that I would need from an ISP...not just FP 2002 Exts? 3. If it is required, can it be run under Unix (i.e. without a Windows server anywhere on the network.) Thanks, Scott Tag: Updates on FP2003 Tag: 42922

    - Frontpage problem with target and frameset Hi, I've got a frameset with two frames...one is a header and the other is the main frame. The idea being that the header has a logo and some interactive buttons in it...that when you click on them they load the various pages into the main frame. What I'm finding is that when I click on one of the interactive buttons, it is ignoring the target frame and loading the new page into the whole browser window...replacing the frameset. I've correctly set the target...the name matches correctly. I've found an article that says that putting a target into the frame definition causes this...and I should remove it. When I go into code view in FP 2003 and remove it and then click on save...it reappears! Two questions... 1) Is this the cause of the problem? (i.e. the target tag in the frameset definition). 2) How can I remove the target tag from the <frame.....> line...without it reappearing when I click on save.

Question before I apply the Office 2003 SP:
1. I do not have MSOffice2003 - I use 2002(MSO-XP)
2. I do use Fpage 2003 - purchased separately.
I am prompted to apply the update/patch for MSO2003
Will applying the 2003 MSO update harm my MSO2002 in any
form? It seems to be the only way I can update my

I also have Office 02 Pro with Fp 03 and had no problems at all. You will
be asked for your FP 03 disk during the installation.
