Page transition

Disne

Hi, I've just re-installed my FP2002 across to my new PC running WinXP and am
re-visiting my web pages (to update them a bit), however I cannot add any of
the page transition features. (The initial pages built were very basic, but
now I want to make them a bit more interesting to view with fade in/out,
etc.) However after applying the page transition, when I use the Preview in
Browser they just appear but with no special feature. Ideally, what I'm
aiming for is a picture which fades in/out and is replaced by another
picture. Although I've read previous posts, I've not understood then,
especially when they start mentioning html - not an area I stray into! Any
help.

Under IE | Internet Options | Advanced tab | Multimedia | Enable animation...

Thanks for the answer, but isn't that for viewing pages in IE - I need to see
my page transitions whilst I'm creating my web pages in Frontpage 2002. I
apply the page transition at page open, and pick the transition, ie:
horizontal blinds and duration but when I try and view in Frontpage 'preview
in browser' there is no effect on my text.

Hope I've explained a bit better this time :)

You are aware that transitions only work in IE and no other browser?

FP by default will use IE when you select Preview in Browser.

You should be previewing the pages in a browser (which is what the user will
see the pages in) the "Preview" in FP is not actually a browser and won't
reliably give you the 'whole picture' so to speak.

Note, as already pointed out, Page Transitions only work in IE.
