Sorry this is long, but complete instructions really help.
FrontPage 2000
I've spent all afternoon trying to figure out how to set up a picture in
FrontPage so that after it is published to my web, then (on a forum, for
instance) one can click on a hyperlink to that picture, and the picture
jumps out of my website into a frame of its own. I almost have it, I think.
If I'm following the right instructions, then I am stuck with No. 5
(1) Import the picture into the Images folder. Create a new page from the
navigation view, name it, and open it. From the menu, click on Format >
Shared Borders. In the dialog box click on "current page" and clear the
check marks from all the boxes. This leaves the page absolutely blank (no
borders).
(2) Insert the picture from the Images folder. Right click picture for Page
Properties > Margins > put a check mark in front of 'specify top margin' and
'specify left margin' and both boxes should say 0 (zero). OK
(3) I n Page view, right-click the graphic, click Picture Properties on the
shortcut menu, and then click the General tab. In the Location box under
Default hyperlink, type the destination that you want to use as the default
hyperlink. This should be (?) the path to my website which includes, for
example,
http://my_ISPs_address/my_webs_directoryname/images/picture.jpg
(4) Then right under that URL is "Target Frame" which, when I click on the
little (pencil?) button, I get a new dialog box which gives me five common
targets to choose from.
(5) If I am in the right place for the procedure I described in the
beginning, I still don't know what choice to make. As I click on each one,
the Target Setting window shows a different type frame for each choice. The
book doesn't say in plain English exactly what I'm really going to get. At
this point it is speaking to someone who wrote the program and knows what he
is doing. I want the viewer to see just the picture with a frame
surrounding just the perimeter of the picture, not the whole page. I'm not
understanding if that happens by itself (or does it depend on which of the
five choices I make)? If it doesn't happen by itself (resize the page to
the actual size of the picture), then at what point do I have to give size
instructions?
