How to remove save embedded file screen

C

Cheryle

Does anyone know how I can set up Frontpage to NOT save a hot linked hacker
safe logo everytime I save a page? I know this is a long shot, but it is
driving us nuts by having to wait for the Save Embedded Files prompt to keep
coming up asking us what we would like to do with the logo-if we save it,
then the logo does not update correctly. Is it possible to have Frontpage
'remember' that we do not want to save this particular logo .gif?

Sorry, not possible. The only solution is to have the file in a folder within your site and then
insert it on your pages.

Thank you Thomas,

I guess I'm better off just clicking 'the leave image at location' once
every time instead of another step of copy/pasting the html for the logo
everytime I change/save a page.

If you copy the image to your web and then insert on your page, you should only have to do it once,
since you would not be prompted by FP to save an the image.

I did save it once, but Hacker Safe rechecks our website daily and then the
logo would not update to reflect the current 'checked' date. I will try it
again, maybe I screwed up something.

Thank you again Thomas!

Ok, then suggest you use a FP Include Page component to insert the Hacker Safe code into your pages,
then when you edit individual page you should not be prompted.

Using the FP Include Page component will require you to manually insert it on to each page,
thereafter you would only have to update the Include Page when required, etc.

Well that didn't work, FP still asks what I want to do with the same exact
picture every time I load/save a page.

Thanks anyway. :-(

Just an update for anyone else having this problem.

I tried letting FrontPage save the logo whenever it asked, then when I was
done editing my pages, I would go in and delete the saved logo-then I did a
Reports summary, changing the url on the broken links to reflect what it
should have been before FrontPage saved it. After doing this for 2 days, it
no longer asked what I wanted to do with the logo.
