| Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease! doing my first site for a company and i have a header created in rontpage, a DHTML menu crated with Sothink DHTML menu builder and a little text in text box with 2 lines on top and on the botom that goes just ubnderneath the header. My problem is that i want these to show on every page and so i add a shared border but the only thing that comes out is the header. if i view in browser...the text in the text box might just show..but not the menu and sometimes the text in the text box is distorted. what do do? |

Sorry Georgie, I use Dreamweaver and haven't fired FrontPage up in a long time, but it sounds like you want to have the same header and footer on every page so why not use a Server Side Include? You would have to rename your pages with a .SHTML extention and your web host would have to support server side includes, but most do these days I think.
Then you just create a seperate page for you header and footer and #Include those where they should appear within your document.
This also makes updating headers and footers easy, because all you have to change is the Header page or the Footer page and they'll just be included next time the main page is loaded.
Server Side Includes also work well for a navigation menu because you can update hundreds of pages just by updating one file.
Here are some tutorials...

Good luck.
