Graphics Not beeing saved with Correct path

[Rob]

Ok, So I have done it again... I went through my images folder trying to
clean up my website and deleted all "Unmatched" files. Ok - So I'm working
through my mistake... Anyway, Now when I put a graphic on this particular
page, it embeds my local directory name in the HTML and does not ask me where
to save the graphic when I save the page.... So, I have two questions now...

1. How do I get frontpage to save the graphic in the images folder ?
2. How do you go through and elminate all "old" graphics that are no longer
needed for the website ?

Please advise

1) Always File Import your images into the FP web before you use them in pages in the web
2) View Reports - Unused files
(but be careful, FP will not report any files in scripts or nav bars as being used)

You need to always IMPORT the images into your site before using them on the
pages.

Ok, I will take that #1 - import graphics for face value - but the FP is
still putting my full local path in the HTML c:\documents and settings\.....
etc etc etc ... How do I correct this ?

1. Make sure you always open the web first, File Menu | Open Web / Site

2. Always import or drag-n-drop the image into the current open FP web / site before inserting on
your page

3. After inserting the image, you must save the page for the path to be relative to your current
open web, otherwise the path be shown as you have indicated until you have saved the page.
