your question on problems after importing site from host

R

Rick Budde

I will guess that the critcal factor here, and the point
at which your troubles started, is how you went about "I
imported the website to FrontPage 2003".

The way to get a website onto a different (or new)
computer is to "http" publish the site from your host to
your new PC using the Front Page Extensions. The Import
feature is not designed to handle that task. It only
imports pages and the pages & graphics that the first
page links to. It does not handle things like borders,
navigation, etc.

If I am correct in my assumption, your best bet from this
point is to delete the imported site from your PC. Then
do the publish from your host to your PC. I believe Front
Page help will assist you if you do a search for Publish.

I hope this resolves your problem.

Hello,

I am having a real strange problem with FrontPage 2003.

My homepage, (index page)
www.VirginiasBestKeptSecret.com, uses a top
border, side border, and a bottom border which cascades
across most of the
website

However, the (bottom border) no longer will publish
correctly (site wide),
this applies even when I only use the off line review
option, as well.

If all of this was not strange enough, when I try and
publish a given page,
all hell lets loose, as the body of the webpage will now
be mirrored where
the bottom border use to be, but in a messed up fashion.

Example Here ->
http://www.virginiasbestkeptsecret.com/Smith_Mountain_Lake
_Real_Estate_HOT_Leads_page01.html

Do you have any idea what gives? I used Yahoo.com's
snapshot backup, to
restore the rest of the website.

Good luck figuring this one out.

The website www.VirginiasBestKeptSecret.com was
originally built from
FrontPage 98, using Windows 98 Second Edition, and now I
imported the
website to FrontPage 2003, hoping to fix the problem
automatically, when I
bought a brand new HP 3.0 Hz computer, back in 2004.

I am now running, Windows Home Edition 2003 .

Whomever can address and fix this problem, will be my
mentor for years to
come.

Thanks in advance.
