You should periodically delete all the folders in your administrator\local settings\temp\ folder too
The multiple copies (one for each page open in FP) is not a mystery
- that's the way FP works since it thinks you will probably want to link to one of them
- you need the other pages open if you want to link to a bookmark in them
| Stefan,
| I found heaps of duplicate folders containing cookies - a
| FP Temp Dir under administrator\local settings\temp\Front
| Page temp. When I went into control panel and Internet
| Options and said delete temporary files, it did some, but
| some were buried in folders. Deleted all the junk. Got
| into FP and did not get memory error.
|
| I still get multiple copies of the c:doc&set\adm. etc. in
| the Insert Hyperlink Box. Found out there are as many
| copies of that address in the Insert Hyperlink box as
| there are open pages on my web. For instance, if I have
| four pages open in the web, when I go to the Insert
| Hyperlink box - there are four sets of that address. If I
| close down two pages of the web, then when I go to the
| Insert Hyperlink Box there are only two copies of that
| address. When you put the cursor over each of them
| individually - down in the bottom of the box in the
| address section there appears one of the pages that is
| open.
|
| That mystery is still not solved.
|
| I have been mulling over this problem. I used to edit
| this web directly on the server. I may go back to doing
| that. It does make it more difficult if there are any
| problems, and you cannot leave anything undone.
|
| We will take all your advice. I will resave the web in
| another folder using no spaces and maybe download a copy
| of the good web from the hosting server and put it in
| another folder.
|
| We will update the video card and directX drivers.
|
| And we will change the way we log in to this computer.
|
| But for right now, I have to say thank you so much and
| because of another obligation, I cannot continue this
| thread until next week. If by chance FP is still acting
| up after we do all these fixes, I will come back to the
| newsgroup and post another message.
|
| I really appreciate all the insightful help and advice.
|
| Pat
