    - WEBBOT 'Include Page' causing problems At the top of all my web pages is a small 2x2 'header' table. The top row has a company logo in one column and the company name in text in the other column. The second row contains a FrontPage 'include page' that is nothing more than another table (2x5) containing links to other pages on my web site. It has been this way for many years and was working fine until I made minor text changes to one of the pages. The 'include page' HTML code is as follows; <TD></TD> What is now happening is that ALL of my web pages display double 'header' tables at the top of each page, and you can see '../menu.htm' as plain text in the second 'header' table. If I remove the 'include page' (../menu.htm), only one 'header' table is displayed at the top of each page (which is normal). The 'menu.htm' file has not been altered in any way. If I put the 'include page' above the 'header' table, the table displays correctly, however, the plain text '../menu.htm' appears above the table. My ISP said they recently performed some Microsoft server updates, and that the updates may have affected the FrontPage Server Extensions. Any help, suggestions, or comments would be appreciated as I don't know how to fix this. Thanks! Tag: web components Tag: 37856

    - Subwebs...Is this what I'm looking for? (long) I have read the help for subwebs and *think* this is what I'm wanting to do but need some help and have some questions. I have a website for our church's youth group posted online. The church has since asked for a page for the church in general (I've made this as a file under the index.htm for my youth group web) as well as a page for the children's ministry. Now they are wanting the church's page to be the first one found (home page) when going to www.htbc.info with the youth group and children's ministry as their own pages underneath that. Since I've focused all my work on the youth group page and it has many pages under it, all linked to the welcome page for the youth group as the home page I'm wanting to keep it as a separate web but under and connected to the church's page. It sounds as though creating the youth group site as a subweb under the church (with the children's ministry as a possible other subweb as well). Is this right? OK, assuming that's what I want to do, should I create a new website for my church and then try to merge the two together? Also, I have gone to Tools and the Server link is greyed out so I cannot follow the directions I found under the Help menu. I seem to have lots of questions and I hate to bother you all here with them (I'm learning Frontpage on my own and by trial and error - mostly error! *grin*). Is there a good reference book that I could buy that would help me? I don't do well with online help but prefer a hard copy book to work from. Sorry for the length of this and add my thanks and appreciation in advance for any help. Kate Tag: web components Tag: 37855

    - Index VS home page I have a small flash program that plays when you initially open my website. Then it goes to the real home page. The flash page is called index and the home page is home. On the navagation links when a user clicks them to go to the home page it takes them to the index and they have to see the flash page again rather than the home page. How do i point the auto navigation links in front page to go to the home page rather than the index?? thank you Tag: web components Tag: 37835

    - Adding new user to database from Web registraton **** I double posted to Access forum since I don't know which one is the right one, sorry!!!!**** Hi: I recently downloaded some ASP pages with Access database verifying and adding Web site users. I managed to make most of them work except for the last step of adding new registrant to the database and return for an "anewmember.asp" This is basically how those codes works: (1) Login.asp: Login screen for registered user to type in their ID and password. Data will be sent to "Member.mdb" for verification. If passed, it will redirect to another page. If not, it will return to the registration form again. This part has no problem. There are sample data in the database, and if I typed the correct one, I will be directed to the protected page. If not, I will be redirected to another registration form. ***I guess this meant that the database - Member.mdb can be read if I can check on its data*** (2) Signup: This is the problem. After filled out registration form and pressed "Submint," it will be redirected to a "Confirm.asp" where user can confirm all information and if right, click "Confimr" to process the data and upon completion, an "anewmember.asp" will be displayed. Here is the error message after pressed "Confirm button" --------------------------------------------------------- Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005' [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver]¤@ 'Temporary (volatile) Jet DSN for process 0xca4 Thread 0xa10 DBC 0x16745f4 Jet'¡C /0501-Product/Membership/addnewmember.asp, line25 ---------------------------------------------------------------- Here is codes from line 24-26 Line 24: set my_conn= Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") Line 25: my_Conn.Open ConnString Line 26: set rscheck = my_conn.Execute ("Select email from member where email='" & email & "'") ------------------------------------------------------ Many thanks in advance!!!

    - Drop down box retains last selected value I am trying to create a drop down box that when the user comes to the website, the drop down boxes values are the last values that the user selected. My website is published on Geocities and it seems like Frontpage functionality on some things are limited. The only way that I have found so far to do this is using a javascript that I found that uses cookies. This works great, until the user logs in from another computer. Does anyone know a better way to do this? I would love to learn a better way to do this on my site. Tag: web components Tag: 37779

    - Two Ways To Identify An Idiot Web Developer I can't tell you how frustrated I get when going to a web developer's website and observing he or she is an idiot that has not grasped the most fundamental element of usability: page title naming conventions. 1.) You know you are at an idiot's website when there is no page title. Listen up idiot. Give every page a name using the HTML <title> element. 2.) When naming your page do not put the name of your website or your company 'after' the page title text. The name of your website or your company name should be placed 'before' the page title text. Assuming the idiot has at least provided a page title consider... Incorrect Page Title Naming Convention: I Am An Idiot And Here's The Proof - IdiotWebDeveloper.com Correct: Page Title Naming Convention: Smart Web Developer - How to Avoid Being Identified As An Idiot The correct page title naming convention is correct as it provides a meaningful description of the contents of the page and the order of the page title text 'after' the developer's website or company name allows the developer's pages to be sorted as a group when saved as a Favorite. -- <%= Clinton Gallagher A/E/C Consulting, Web Design, e-Commerce Software Development Wauwatosa, Milwaukee County, Wisconsin USA NET csgallagher@REMOVETHISTEXTmetromilwaukee.com URL http://www.metromilwaukee.com/clintongallagher/ Tag: web components Tag: 37750

    - hyperlink to open an Excel Template as an xls file I have a hyperlink to an Excel template. Problem is when I click on it the browser opens Excel with the file as a template instead of as an Excel file. I don't want the users changing the template I want Excel to function in the way it normally does when you double click on a template in windows explorer. I have seen a couple of posts re opening Excel outside the browser but that means having access to all the PC's and changing their config, something that is not realistic. Is there anyway to either Open Excel inside the browser with the template as an xls file Or Make the hyperlink open Excel outside the browser without having to change the PC configuration.

The database connection is working OK, using the wizard to do lookups works fine. The SQL query I'm putting into the wizard is: UPDATE users SET activated = 1 WHERE (user = ::user::) ::user:: is a form field "user", which I have tried passing to the page containing this script using both GET and POST. However, all I get is this error: Database Results Error Your page contains a query with user input parameters that could not be resolved. This could happen if your DatabaseRegionStart webbot has an empty or missing s-columnnames or s-columntypes attributes. You may need to read Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 817029.
