FP 2000 seems to forget to convert hyperlinks to local files to point to the
web URL when publishing my site.
Links like file:///d:\mysite\ are published to my site, and naturally, these
links does not work.
Anyone seen this behaviour and got some hints to fix it ?
Regards, John

Do you actually have a File | Web open when creating your web pages, or do
you just open a page without opening the web first?

It is the hyperlinks in my navbars that is the problem, sorry that I didn't
specify this in the forst place.
The hyperlinks in navbars are generated and managed fully by FP (?) and the
pages are marked to be included in navbars.
I publish to my site using FTP, and the server does not use FP extensions.
BTW, this is FP2000 (SP3)

I thought FP would replace the local hyperlink file:// with my http:// when
publishing but the published link is to my local file.
I've created the file in FP (long time ago), added navbars and applied a
theme.

I've tried to take away the theme and replace the navbars and changed from
text to graphics for the navbar and uploaded - part (changed files) and
full - sometines it gets right, other times not (not systematic to me).

Is there e.g. someplace to force the root URL of my site to be
http://mysite.provider.com/ ?
