Frontpage navigation
Many of the ASP version Frontpage ecommerce templates
use a theme so it is easy to add new buttons and pages without
having
to open your graphics program.
Changing Button Names
Button names are based on the Title of the page. They must be kept
short because FrontPage will not wrap button names. They will appear
on one line and will need to fit within the space alloted on the
button. In Frontpage, go into Navigation View and right click on
the page icon in the tree structure, choose Rename and type the
name of the page you need. You will probably also want to change
the name of the page itself so right click on the page name in folder
view, choose Rename and type the new .htm or .asp name you require.
It’s best to keep names lower case and without spaces.
If you need to change the wording of the “home” link
go to Tools>Web Settings>Navigation and place your wording
there.
Adding a Page
To make more pages on the same navigation level, open a page >
go to File > Save As > assign a new Page title by clicking
on Change > type in the new title > OK > type in a new
File name. Save. This will give you an exact copy of the first page
without altering the first page. Drag the new page's file name into
Navigation View in the place on the menu where you would like it
to appear. FrontPage will automatically add the new page to the
navigation bar. To finish the new page, insert appropriate content.
For some reason Frontpage 2000 won’t allow you to have a
.asp page as a parent file in navigation view so what you will need
to do is change the extension to .htm, attach the page in the navigation
tree chart and then change the extension back to .asp.
Deleting a Page In Navigation View, right click on the icon of the page
you wish to remove > Delete > Delete this page from the Web
> OK.
