FP 98 to FP 2003?

[Septima]

I recently had a prospective new customer contact me about taking over his
website. I do not generally use Frontpage.

Sorry but I was willing to take a look at the site. I have limited
experience with it and do have 2003 on my system for doing minor updates for
a couple customers.

I have run into a problem with the site. It is down with templates and
scripting and when I try to update the site it does not show the entire page
and changes only to part of the page.

The scripting seems to load a java script that loads the header and the
navigation for the site. This is where I run into a problem.

I did contact the person that originally designed the site and of course he
is being very pompous about it is very complex and it must be since it did
it in frontpage 98 and the server extensions are for 98 that I cant work on
the site. First comment was I must have used another editor which I did not.

Anyways I am trying to figure out if someone might be able to tell me if it
is a problem with the server extensions, the two programs ie 98 to 2003 not
being compatible or if I am missing something.

If I am missing something can someone point me in the right direction for a
crash course on how to work with the templates with scripting?

Thanks...

If the site is using a JavaScript DHTML Menu, you will either need the source file from the original
developer or you will have manually try to modify the script or you will end up having to redo the
entire navigation structure.

See if the web host will upgrade the extensions to FP2000 at a minimum.
