How can I make hover buttons in a FrontPage web that show in Prev.

[Windjamer]

I'm trying to make hover buttons in FrontPage 2002, but they don't show in
Preview mode and are blocked in my usual browsers, IE Explorer and Firefox.
Though I can unblock JavaScript, I imagine that most users will have similar
settings. It's default in Firefox.

Does FP 2003 get around this with it's more advanced buttons?

Hover buttons are Java, not JavaScript.

Also you need to test this via http, not from within your disk-based web (c:\...)

In addition, as they are java based, they will require that
the client machine has a java VM installed. MS no longer
provides one with Windows, so it must be sourced elsewhere-
sun.java.com
You can achieve similiar and better results using items such
as dynamic HTML or css

Hoovers are JAVA based
See help on FP Interactive Buttons (JavaScript based)

Apparently Interactive Buttons are not in 2002 - introduced with 2003.

I'll look for a DHTML solution, as Mike suggests.
