I have a question regarding to the program. I'm trying to make a web page where all of my navigational menu (home, links, download, info, etc...) on the top of the page horizontally. My question is that how can i make it permanent? everytime i click on a link. My navigational menu bar disappear as it load the clicked link. I want my navigation menu to stay there the entire time if i click on any link to any pages or sites. The hard part is that i do not want to use FRAMES. I have a lot of problem with creating sites that use frames and it's not compatible with everyone.

Making pages with elements that appear on certain pages are used with dynamic pages. These typically consist of elements held in a database, and called using a scripting language to generate the page. This can be all too time consuming if you're doing a personal page.

But you're in luck, FP2k uses something called 'Shared Borders' which don't utilize databases. Do a search for shared borders in the FP help file, and it will give you examples and teach you how to use them. Good luck :)

Check out our page at www.tbbs.net. We do a similar thing to what you want. I think its with a redir.asp file that links the page, but keeps the navbar there. I didnt code the page, so I don't know for sure :D

You forgot an important part of your solution - OPEN UP WALLET AND REMOVE $300, 'cause that's how much Dreamweaver costs. In other words, you sure aren't helping this person.

Kroze use tables...

Get a creating web pages book, or read-up on it at the library/book store.

Save a few web sites-(anandtech.com, etc) and open them inside Frontpage. Then select &quot;normal&quot; to see the format/tables.

One of the best way to learn is to see how others did it.
