Does FP have an automated method of placing an image on a 200 page site

I have over 200 pages that I want an image to be placed in a selected
position on each page.
Other than going through and placing manually , Does FP have an automated
function that places an object
in a certain location on the page ?

No. You would have to place them on each page unless there was something on
the page that you could use to do a global search and replace on, like
another image. You could use an include page but initially you would have
to place it on each page but later, making updates would mean only updating
the one page.

Thanks for the conformation. I had a feeling that might be the case but I
was hoping FP might have had a trick up its sleeve. Would have been a nice
feature FP

You can use a sharedborder if the image is in the same spot on every page
unless on certain pages you can turn off sharedborders.

***********************
Kind of hard once the site is done, but there are a few
things that may work:
#1 Shared border.
#2 Include page component.
---> Both methods would require a global find/replace to
implement, and the include would be tricky unless it was to
appear at a common division in the page

Something else I tried was to use the html footer option in
IIS. What this does is allow you to place an html formatted
block to all webpages served from the site
#1 IIS appends this to the document. The document would need
to have the closing body & html tags removed. They would
need to go onto the appended page. Failure to do this will
result in code being placed afterwards, and will not
validate. CSS can be used; though, to create a div and put
it anywhere.
#2 It only works on static html documents. If it is ASP(X),
PHP, etc it will not append to them.

Thanks for offering me a few more options Mike

Luckily this site is static html pages.
I'm not familiar with the css div method could you explain ?

I tried your INCLUDE idea and it worked ok. BUT one thing you forgot to
mention
Having done a test placement on a dozen pages, I made some corrections on
the main control page
and then went to FTP to upload the ONE MASTER PAGE .After clicking the ftp
refresh I noticed the FTP TIME STAMP on all the 12 pages had been
refreshed even though I never touched them.

Does this mean that if I place the INCLUDE on 200 pages and make a change in
the master page
I then have to upload the 200 pages ?????????

If your site has FrontPage extensions - no, you don't have to upload all
200 pages, BUT you must NOT use FTP which will corrupt the extensions.
Pages must be HTTP published.

If you use FTP to publish, then all 200 pages must be uploaded.

Here is what I had setup:
#1 generic page setup with an area empty for the header,
saved as page.html
<html>
<body>
<div style="position: absolute; top:150px; background-color:
#f00">
<p>content</p>
</div>
<!--no </body></html> on the page -->

#2 created a generic header, saved as header.html
<div style="position: absolute; top: 0px; height: 150px;
background-color: #000; color: #fff">
<h1>Page Header</h1>
</body></html>

#3 set IIS properties, >Documents >Include footer
-set it to header.html


I then checked the page, and the IIS footer was inserted.
Due to absolute positioning, the included page rendered at
the top
