NOTE: I receive my MS FP Bulletin one month late, now I have found the http://microsoftfrontpage.com/ site, I will be able to post the bulletins sooner. However please note the bulletins one receives via subscription at MS are not the same format as the site bulletins and that the msfp site also contains other information. There is one other important point to note and that is the archives at microsoftfrontpage.com do not as far as back as these, so if you want to look back this is the place to do it!

EDITING ASP FILES WITH MICROSOFT FRONTPAGE 2000
Did you know that you could safely edit Active Server Pages (ASP) files in the Microsoft FrontPage 2000 Web site creation and management tool? New and improved handling of ASP in FrontPage 2000, combined with a few basic rules for implementing ASP, allows developers to feel comfortable letting users edit pages that include ASP code. This article describes how FrontPage determines whether to display pages containing ASP code in Normal (WYSIWYG--what you see is what you get) View or HTML View, and describes how to create ASP code that allows users to safely edit the Web pages containing the ASP code in Normal View.

POSITION AND LAYER GRAPHICS AND TEXT--DOWN TO THE PIXEL--WITH FRONTPAGE 2000
Using new positioning and layering tools in Microsoft FrontPage 2000, you can now place elements on your Web pages exactly where you want them. These new tools enable you to layer Web objects on top of one another, group them together as a unit, position graphics and text by setting precise pixel coordinates, wrap text around an image or text block, and more.  To find out how to position and layer graphics, check out Part 1 of these articles at:

CONTROL WEB PAGE DEFAULT SETTINGS
As users of Microsoft Word are probably aware, every time you create a new document, Word bases that document on a template called Normal.dot. This template includes such information as the default font Word uses and the standard margins for pages.  What you may not be aware of, however, is that Microsoft FrontPage uses a similar template whenever you create a new HTML document. By modifying this template, you can control many of the default settings on your HTML pages. In this article, you can see where FrontPage stores its template and how you can edit it:

HOW MUCH DOES ECOMMERCE COST?
If your company is not on the Internet then you're going to go out of business . that's the message we keep hearing in television advertising and articles in the Sunday papers. But what is eCommerce and how much does it cost? Find out more from the FrontPage user group chairman Rod Gordon, of Gordon Associates.  Rod reviews the time and costs of some of the top ecommerce sites around.  To read the article in full please goto

TIPS AND TRICKS
=======================================================

USEFUL SHORTCUT KEYS IN FRONTPAGE 2000
Do you find that using the keyboard is sometimes quicker than using your mouse? Shortcut keys can help you bypass menus and carry out commands directly. You can use shortcut keys in many ways with FrontPage, from accessing commands and toolbar buttons to outlining and editing information. Shortcut keys are sometimes listed next to the command name on menus. For more details, please go to:
http://analyst.microsoft.co.uk/redirect.dll?57E1C53AB22D11D38BE500902798A974

THE JAVASCRIPT SOURCE TIP: IMAGE SLIDE SHOW
When you cut and paste this script in HTML view it will enable you to rotate a series of images in a page as a slideshow. You can customize the images and the time between each image. This script works best if all the images are the same dimension! Learn more at:
http://analyst.microsoft.co.uk/redirect.dll?57E1C54CB22D11D38BE500902798A974


AVOID LARGE GAPS BETWEEN PARAGRAPHS
When you are creating Web pages in FrontPage, if you press Return, it is interpreted as the end of a paragraph and FrontPage inserts some space in front of the next paragraph for you.  Which is fine - usually!  If you want to suppress the space that FrontPage provides, press Shift Return instead of Return at the end of a paragraph.

http://analyst.microsoft.co.uk/redirect.dll?57E1C55AB22D11D38BE500902798A974
We will be giving out prizes for any top tips submitted and posted to our top tips website.  Have a think and let us know your top tips and we'll send you a little FrontPage gift.  Please send us your top tips via the submission form on the website.


That's it for this month's issue.
