Hi,
I am an intermediate level user of FP2003. I am in the process of
developing a website for my office. So far the content has grown to
hundred plus pages. I have placed all the content in plain tables
without any menu or title.
Now, I have developed about six DWT files which contain horizontal
link bars (made of simple text links). Let me call it Sub DWT. Each
Sub DWT shall be attached to a couple of pages pertaining to links in
the Sub DWT. So, I can change the Sub DWT to make any changes in the
link menu on all the pages attached to it. All these groups of pages
have their own parent HTML page, like an index page for each section.
Things are fine to this end.
What now I want is to add a title area with links to each of the
sections being covered by each Sub DWT. These links shall connect to
the index pages of separate sections. I guess it makes sense to
organize things like this. I have a Master DWT page to take care of
the title and the links to each section of website and it works fine
if linked to any page, like it is working fine with the Home Page.
I want this title or Master DWT to be shown on ALL pages of my
website. That means all pages shall (with the exception of Home Page)
have a consistent title with a couple of links in it (governed by
Master DWT) PLUS content of link bar created under its corresponding
Sub DWT.
I have tried attaching Sub DWT first (for the corresponding group of
pages) and then adding Master DWT to them. Content from Sub DWT does
show up below the content from Master DWT. The problem is that after
attaching the Master DWT, the content of Sub DWT becomes detached from
its pages, while that from the Master DWT remains attached. That means
now if I make any changes to this Sub DWT, it wont be displayed in the
pages attached to it.
I have tried using FP2003 shared border (with the content from Master
DWT), with the hope that both may go hand in hand. They do appear on a
page linked with the Shared Border and attached with the Sub DWT in
Design view, but the Shared Border part disappears in Preview or
Browser. I have also tried publishing the page. Same result. Shared
Border wont show up, only Sub DWT is shown. I have also tried Include
page instead of shared border, with some issue that it does not show
up in browser. I am using IE8.
So, my requirement is to put Master DWT on all pages with Sub DWTs on
their linked pages. How can I accomplish this? I can go for mix of
DWTs, or DWT plus Shared Border or any other idea. Any help would be
appreciated.
