Hi-
I have some work I am doing were I am expected to edit some htm files
on a website that has very rudimentary editing tools. (A teaching tool,
called WebCT.) What I like to do is copy the html code from WebCT's
editing tool and paste it into a new Frontpage file, make my edits
there and then copy the code back to the file in WebCT where I can then
save my changes. It works very nicely and I can circumvent the awkward
tools that the WebCT offers this way but still get my work done. This
all works great and I have been using this technique successfully for
some time now.
However, I've recently encountered a new "glitch" in my process.
Sometimes I'll want to save my work in mid-process and come back to it
the next day before I'm ready to save back to the website. But when I
open some htm files in Frontpage it pops them into Word, taking me out
of Frontpage altogether. My co-worker thinks that some of these pages
we are editing must have originally been written in Word and that on
some level not even visible in the html code that is hard coded.
I can work around this by saving back to the website and retrieving it
again the next day so that I can continue my task, but I was wondering
if anyone knows what would make Frontpage open a file that has an htm
extension into Word?
