    - display database results as gallery Is it possible to display frontpage database results in gallery format and with direct page numbering and linking - and with possibly the a link that will display all results on one page in a gallery format, maybe 3 or 4 columns wide? All I seem to have available currently are arrows that allow me to scoll through database results only one page at a time and with only one column of results. Is this the only options available for database results display using Frontpage 2003? If so, are there any add-ons or even an external application that I might use to accomplish this?

    - Question .. I'm sure it's simple for someone I want to build a web site with Front Page for my catering business. On this site I want to be able to give prospective clients an opportunity to fill out a request form with several options on menu items. I can make the page OK, but I'm not sure how to program the request page to deliver the results of the request page , or where to have them arrive. Any help would be appreciated.

    - Changing BG via buttons I added some buttons to the top of an Include page (so the buttons will appear at the top of all pages) to let the reader change the current image background, but the buttons won't work. The background is displayed through an external style sheet: http://www.rc10.com/misc/css/test.htm The buttons work if there is no external stylesheet: http://www.rc10.com/misc/css/background.htm Does the stylesheet prevent the background from changing, or does the problem lie elsewhere?

    - Downloads from FP2000 page Hello, When visiting the form http://www.freisco.com/steals.htm, and double click on the "Jan 27, 2005" link; I get a different response depending on the browser in use. Using IE, the *.rtf file spawns itself onscreen. Using NetScape, I get the option box of "open using Word" or "save to disk" options. Is there a way I can control this mechanism? Ideally I'd like the user to get just the NetScape solution and not get the report spawned on their desktop. FWIW - I generate the report using Access 2000, then upload the *.rtf file to my site, then go to FP2K and establish the link to deliver the report upon request. Any and all insights welcomed. -Steve Tag: electronic newsletter Tag: 49196

    - FrontPage 2003 Theme Image Updating Hi, I am having a problem in FrontPage 2003, in which I have changed some graphics in a theme, and it update one graphic, but when I changed two additional graphics, they did not update. 1) from the menu, Format, Theme 2) right click In-Motion 3) Customize 4) Vertical Navigation 5) Changed selected picture graphic, and it changed fine. 6) Repeat steps 1-5, and change "selected graphic" and "hovered graphic". Neither of these would update. Also if I look in the "derived" directory for the website, the names of the graphics did not change. Does anyone know a workaround for this (appears to be a bug in FrontPage)? Is there some way to "force" FrontPage to update or refresh the website's derived files directory, because this directory seems to hold the graphics for the web pages? Thank you.

    - web form I would like to add a web form to my website, but I don't care for the validation "messages" that FrontPage sends when a required field(s) are not entered. For instance, if COMMENTS field is required and it is not entered, the message sent back on submit is.... Please enter value for the "Comment" field. I would prefer that it would say something like "Please enter Comment Information", or something else more professional sounding than the "generic" message that FrontPage sends; preferably a message that I can control. Is there any way to change the validation "messages" in FrontPage or is there some software or add-on available for creating professional forms. I tried searching Yahoo & Google and didn't find anything helpful. I did find some products that sounded promising, but the information in the my web forms would be sent to "their" servers and I don't want that. Appreciate any information you can give me.

    - W3Cs validator finding fault with nonexistent code When I use W3C's validator, I get warning messages that don't apply to the page. For instance, "bordercolor" does not occur on the page, but it brings up the issue anyway: # Line 173, column 132: there is no attribute "BORDERCOLORLIGHT" This was taken from my page: http://www.rc10.com/basicshub/aboutae/about_ae.htm Also, sometimes it refers to something on line 214, but there are fewer than 200 lines on the page, according to the numbering in FP2003. Should I just ignore things like this? Thanks, Steve H Tag: electronic newsletter Tag: 49183

    - CSS, Javascript, and Netscape I have a horizontal navigation menubar with five links. It is built with CSS inline style. Below it is a horizontal submenu bar. Each submenu bar initially is visibility: hidden, and when the user moves the mouse over the main level menu item, I wrote javascript telling the browser to display the appropriate submenu. The menu works great in IE but the submenus never become visible in Netscape. I like this menu style because it is similar to the two-tiered flash menus, but it doesn't use flash, allowing for much quicker page loading. Any suggestions? The site is at www.cbcwichita.org/testpage.shtml. Here's a sample of the code for one menu item: function showabout() { librarynav.style.visibility='hidden'; aboutusnav.style.visibility='visible'; radionav.style.visibility='hidden'; contactnav.style.visibility='hidden'; } Thanks, Robb Tag: electronic newsletter Tag: 49177

    - File Upload Component Hey All, Hope you can help with this. I am thinking it might be a user error on part of my client but correct me if I am wrong. I have created a page with about 15 upload forms to allow client to upload images to separate folders for a photo gallery. It always works fine for me. Never have a problem from 2 different computers. My client experiences the following problems. Unsure if there might be some utility on her machine that cause her to be unable to upload. Quote from my client. "I really think there is something wrong with photo album admin. I have tried for 3 days from home and I brought a cd to work to try from here. It doesn't work here either. This time when I clicked submit I got a blank screen, never the user id/pw screen. I tried again and got you are not authorized." Any insight? Thanks. Tag: electronic newsletter Tag: 49151

    - hyperlink text disappears when editing Hello. Two of us have recently taken over responsibility for our company website. The existing site was built using AdobeGoLive. We are going to support it using Front Page 2003. We've made several successful changes the past two months. Just to clarify we are not both on the site at the same time making chances. The other user has the main responsibility. I back her up and troubleshoot for her when necessary, but am far from an expert in Front Page 2003. Recently when we try to change an existing hyperlink to redirect it to a new target, the text disappears. For example: Click here for our VACATION specials site. VACATION was a hyperlink to www.oldwebsite.com/ourcompany. We wanted to redirect the hyperlink to a new site www.newwebsite.com/ourcompany. Regardless of whether you right click on the VACATION and then edit the hyperlink or whether you go into the Code Screen and change the target in html, the result is the same. You now see on the Design screen: Click here for our specials site. The word VACATION that was the hyperlink has now disappeared. We both have licenses for FrontPage 2003 and it happens to both of us. I have searched both Office Online and the Microsoft KB without success. Help would really be appreciated. Our owner is breathing down our necks. Thank you, Network Admin Terri Terri Tag: electronic newsletter Tag: 49143

    - target tag within iframe element FrontPage 2003 insists on inserting the "target=_self" attribute within my iframe elements. (Not the links pointing to the iframe, the iframe itself.)

Also, if the database (e.g. MS SQL 2000) have Unicode and the fields have been set up as Unicode as well, will it still require the server to have the same in order to develop and view the Unicode page?

It's your mail client that requires the graphics to be downloaded
explicitly. You cannot control this except from the client.
