Frameless using FP2000?

Dennis Allen

Hi. I've been thinking of using Frontpage to take my web site,
www.dennisallen.com, and go frameless. Since I have a left framed frame.htm
with lots of javascipt code, is this a good idea?

I could use FP insert/components/web page to add my frame.htm page to all
other pages. But frame.htm has lots of javascript functions in the header,
and needs onload= to start them. I suppose I could move my <script> code
into the <body>. What are the advantages/disadvantages of <head> script
code as opposed to <body> script code?

Side question. Many of my pages have external <script src="temp.js"> calls.
In fact, a couple of pages I have to create a <body onload="xload()"> in
which xload() checks to make sure all the temp.js functions are loaded
before proceeding. Now it seems to me that the FP insert/component/page to
bypass this need altogether, but insert/component/page only asks for *.htm
files. What, do I want to convert my *.js files to *.htm files, wraping
<html><body><script></script></body></html> around them?

You might want to consider upgrading to FrontPage 2003. It has a new feature
called "Dynamic Web Templates" with which you can define the structure and
content of a page, structure and content which is shared across all pages
using this Dynamic Web Template, and define Editable Regions in the pages
where you put any content which is specific to that individual page. You can
put any number of Editable Regions in the Template, and place them anywhere
in the page structure that you like.
