Thanks for your help. I solved my problem by re-writing my website (seems
some elements were broken). At the same time my host has updated Frontpage
server extension by downloading the listed patches.
One last problem exists: The search function. My host mentioned that they
have created an index catalog and I can see a new directory called
'catalog.wci' but there is nothing in it.
Dare not asking for more help but if you know what to do, drop me a note...
Thanks

Looking at
http://www.leforum.com.au/Eng/index.html
- you page content is repeating and your shared border (top, left, bottom) are not appearing
For Borders not appearing:
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
For content repeating:
There are some bugs in the FP2002 SE related to shared borders & include pages
so make sure you (and your host) see & apply all appropriate patches from:
If using FP 2002, For info in Service Pack 1 & 2 for FP2002 / MSO XP - see:

PS
-remove the absolute positioning from your div tags in top and left .htm
| Thank you for the response. I am using FP2003 and the web package solution
| 'corporate presence wizard'.
| - losing the frames means the buttons on the left hand side and on top are
| no longer visible after publishing is completed. Again during the publishing
| work I can see them... Looks like something is being erased in the last few
| seconds of publishing.
| - On top of losing the frames, it seems that the same information is repated
| several times. May I suggest that you have a look at my home page
|
www.leforum.com.au then select French or English? This is where the problem
| lies.
| - FP does not rename pages
| Appreciate your help...
