included borders

[Sarah Lope]

Hi, I want to make a site where i can modify the left and
right borders. i have two shared borders for the top and
bottom, but i want to change the right and left ones for
different pages. i am having a really hard time setting
this up. Can you please tell me the easiest way to do
this? Heres is what i have tried... I made a layout
table on my "template" page(100% height and width) and
made it 3 columns. Then I included the left and right
include pages into tables on the side columns of my
layout table. Those tables were 120 pixel width and 100%
height because i wanted a column of 120x90 ads. So, I
made my include pages and i again made tables on them of
120 pixes width and 100% height. I am not getting the
results i want. i wont describe what it looks like, but
can u pelase tell me if i am on the right path to doing
this??!! All i want to really do is have "included"
tables of 120 pixel width and 100% height so i can make
multiple rows of 120x90 ads, so i can modify the whole
site at once!!!

PLEASE HELP THANK YOU

What you have written is a little confusing, are you using both Shared Borders and FP Include Pages?

When using shared borders, it is not possible to have more than a single set of shared border (top,
bottom, left, right) within a web.

Ok, sounds like i am on the right track by setting up my
whole page with tables, and then including pages, but i
please need to know this....

all i really want for the right border of every page is a
table i can modify with 120 pixel width and 100% height.
(that way i can split it into rows and make 120x90 pixel
ads the whole way down the side of the page.)

So i made my table that way on the main page (120 width
and 100% height). Now, when i include, what do i have to
do on my include page? make another table with the same
specs? or use the whole page and make it fit into my
table on the main page?

hope i am not confusing, thanks

forget about the shared borders.

It sounds like you're mixing two things together that

are not going to work the way you want.

Dump the Shared Borders because you put in them will be the same on every page.

Create your tables, like you did, use the Included

Content/Page to insert your image (or whatever) into your
table column...this way you can have different
images/text etc...whatever...and it can be the same OR
different on all pages...and you only have to update the
Include page table content.

Make an include page (or several) w/ your 1 column 120 px table (cells/rows for each ad)
In your main pages make a single cell table 120 px wide on the left, and insert the include page you want there

Insert > Web Component > Included Content > Page.

use this and you can include any page anywhere on the site. if the shared pages
need updating you only need to update them, not every page that uses them (eg for
menus if you add links).

Upload the pages to your server.

Similar to Server Side Includes.
