Shared borders and Include Pages are design time tools w/ the content (inside the <BODY> tags) of the Shared Border or Include page
"embedded" or included as html in your pages when you save any of the file(s) using them (or save the borders / include pages
themselves)

FP converts your page(s) to a series of tables to include the Shared borders, (which are really just a special case of Include
pages)
But FP can not build those tables if either your shared border page content or main page content has illegal html or broken tag
pairs
- usually due to missing </body></html> tags, or unmatched table / cell tags (unclosed table / cell tags), or some other unclosed
html block element

If you can see them using File Preview in Browser they will publish in as part of your pages

If you can't see them using File Preview in Browser, it's because FP can not build the included content tables, so you need to
validate and correct your broken html

Thanks for your interest and reply:

Your analysis is good and on track regarding HTML tags.

After seeing this problem repeat itself, no question about it -- FrontPage is the culprit. Front Page is the problem. FrontPage IS A PROBLEM. On its own volition, it either, corrputs the tags on upload to the server, or it corrupts the tags on save, DURING upload.

RECOMMEND THAT MICROSOFT COMES UP WITH A SUITABLE PATCH.

Problem surfaces both on Windows 98 and XP.
Version: FrontPage 2000

If you are getting duplicated borders, then MS has issued an update version
of the extensions that the host needs to install.

FP is telling you that you have broken html tags which you must fix or it can not use shared borders
- validate and fix your page code before saving
or provide a URL for the broken pages that won't save shared borders
