FP2002 Banner Problem - Please help.
Please go to www.ILoveJupiter.netfirms.com
and see the problem with my banner. In the preview
of my webpage, things are great. But, a preview in
a browser or on my webhost (above), the text is "blacked"
out. I have tried for an entire week to find the cause
of this.
If you can help, I will never forget your name !

Customised Error 404
Sorry another question.
As FP wont accept .htaccess info, apart from ensuring that I have no dead
links prior to uploading ;), how do I create a customised 404 page.
Also, a general html Q, If sum1 entered my site from other than the
index.html, how do I bounce them out to it?

Themed buttons
Can anyone help a Newbie with this please?
I have some navigation buttons (a modified theme) which the webowners wanted
quite large. I have now persuaded them that they are a little overpowering
and intend to reduce the size. I would like to have a small description on
the button and a more detailed description when they move the mouse over it.
Can this be done easily in FrontPage? At some point I have to hand over the
website to some-one with limited knowledge (even more limited than mine!) so
I don't want to do anything in that might be too taxing!

CSS from Scratch?
I recently built this site:
http://home.comcast.net/~p51bombay/index.htm and while
I'm happy with it's appearance, it's become apparent that
something needs to be done to acommodate users with
resolution below 1024x768, anything below that and the
user has to scroll right quite a but.
I built the site from scratch with a table since I didn't
really like any of the templates. So using this method,
is it possible to use CSS to make if more widely viewable?
.......I should add, possble using WYSIWYG? Tag: Can you auto update a site Tag: 21220
CSS - should we use?
Don't know if this is the right forum to ask this question, but since I am
using FP, I'll give it a shot.
Currently our site has about 150 HTML pages with some javascript/
We are selling software to Windows users (so Mac/Unix users are not our
customers).
Our question is this, we want to design a site that will work for 95%+ of
those users likely to visit us. Can we encorporate CSS into our design and
know that 95% or more surfers will be able to view our pages as we have
designed them?
Assuming that the answer is yes, can anyone recommend a book that has a
particularly good intro to CSS?
TIA

Frontpage Extensions, Forms, and FTP
I have a website, namely heilauction.com, and I use FTP to
upload it. I know that using FTP corrupts FP SE, but I
have to do this because when running FP 2002, I have text
boxes made by FP. When I upload using FP, it forgets to
upload these very important text boxes apparently because
netscape and compuserve viewers cannot view these FP -
generated items. (MSIE Can) So I started to Use WS_FTP. It
was uploading everything perfectly until I the other day,
people complained because they couldn't sign up for my
email list. I use FP's forms. They said FTP corrupts the
FP SE (they= Phastnet Web Host), so don't use FTP. Well, I
have to use FTP, or a portion of our viewers cannot roam
around our site. I would highly appreciate your support...

Help Publishing...no answers yet
I am publishing to the host company server where my
domaim is registered. The site was put together in FP and
under C:\Documents and
Settings\AHM\My Documents\mywebs. when i configure the
publishing, they ask me for the destination which is
www."mydomain".com. It then asked me for username and
password. My index does have html extention. So when I
goto publish it says that I'm publishing from
C:\Documents and
Settings\AHM\My Documents\mywebs to www."mydomain".com.
I'm sorry if your confused by my situation but all i'm
trying to do is send up these file without a C:\ etc. and
all that garbage with it. When I goto homepage on the
host server the link to the next page points back to my
computer, ie. (C:\Documents and
Settings\AHM\My Documents\mywebs\tcb1).
What do I do?
thx again for your help

Web site changes do not update immediately
I make changes to our web site on our W2K Server with
2002 Extensions and I can preview the changes and they
look correct however, after saving, when I try to access
them across the net using my IE6 browser, the changes do
not appear. They do appear however on browsers in my

appear immediately which they used to do. I can't figure

hosting multiple websites
Good Day!
I was wondering if anybody could offer me some
suggestions to overcome my difficulties.
I would like to host two websites on my server. I have
two registered domain names for my websites that point to
my server's IP. However, the sites only load if I include
the port in the URL (ex: ruby2.com:89) I would like to be
able to load my website without mentioning the port in
the url (ex: ruby2.com) Must I configure my Microsoft XP
network system so my websites can run on different IP
addresses and on the default port 80 (I only have one
computer)? And if so, how do I do this (step by step -
please)? Is this possible? Is there a simpler way?
Any suggestions, comments, or advice would be great!!

problem with Frontpage server extensions
First off, I am using FrontPage 2000. I have been able to publish my web
with out any real problems. The only issue I am having is with the server
extensions. I have personal webspace available through my ISP, Cox cable,
and they support using FrontPage. On their website I am able to manage my
files and activate the server extensions, when I do so I get 3 folders, "vti
cnf", "cti pvt" and "vti txt". Also looking in these folders, they appear
to be empty except for the "cvt pvt" folder, it has 3 files labeled
"htpasswrd", "lwsaccess" and "services.cnf".
My specific issue is my hit counter doesn't work and my discussion group
doesn't work, I get an error:
FrontPage Run-Time Component Page
You have submitted a form or followed a link to a page that requires a web
server and the FrontPage Server Extensions to function properly.
This form or other FrontPage component will work correctly if you publish
this web to a web server that has the FrontPage Server Extensions installed.

Sending Parameters from two hyperlinks to the same page
Hello,
I have created a complex DB Query on Frontpage 2000, that
is bringing in two different types of records. On each
returned record, along with the column results, I have
created two hyperlinks. Clicking on one hyperlink sends
certain information to the right frame (named
update.asp), and clicking on the other hyperlink sends
different pieces of information from the DB results to the
right frame as well. The goal of this project is link the
two different types of records together, in a one to one
relationship. Ideally, I would like to click on the one
hyperlink, sending it's specific information to the right
frame, and then I would like to click on the hyperlink of
an accompanying record of the database results to populate
the other information, so that the right frame would have
information from both records. Then once the form in the
right frame is fully populated, I could submit the form,
writing the information to a table. Everything works
properly, except that each time I click on a hyperlink, it
refreshes the right frame, so I am unable to have
information from two separate hyperlinks present on the
same page. Is this even possible, or is it just the
inherent functionality of a hyperlink? Thanks for any
help that you can lend.

it looks good when I "preview in browser".......but when
the site is uploaded....the photogallery doesnt show up
at and all I get is this text:

Unable To Find My Written Words
To Whom It may Concern,
I used the corporate web page from FrontPage 2002,
and when I wrote my wording under the heading of the
section Our Mission, I went on to finish up the web page.
When I previewed the entire page after finishing it, the
only thing that shows up in the section heading called
Our Mission is the heading Our Mission. This isn't the
only heading that didn't show my wording, I only used the
section called Our Mission as an example.
I saved it after finishing each section, and I kept
it as an unfinished task so I could continue working on
my corporate project.
Now some of the other section headings on the other pages
were just fine and I could read my wording that I had
typed in, however some of those sections were broken up
sentences and paragraphs under preview instead of what
you see under normal.
Thanks to anyone who can help me out this trouble,
because I can't figure this out.
