"inititally collapsed" CheckBox (?)

B

I am new to FP (using v2003) and am having trouble locating the "Initially
Collapsed" CheckBox that's referred to in the FP Collapsible List Help dialog
-- I did find the "Enable Collapsible Outlines" CheckBox, as described and
checked it, but can't find this other one. Regardless, after a bit of
research, I think I've got the attributes (onmouseover initcollapsed... which
I just pasted in there) that I need to do what I want, as in the following
code fragment (but it does not seem to work in preview):

<body onclick="dynOutline()" language="Javascript1.2">

<h4><font face="Arial" size="2">Fundraisers</font></h4>
<ul>
<li><i><font size="2" face="Arial">Products</li>
</font></i>
<ul dynamicoutline onmouseover initcollapsed>
<li><font size="1" face="Arial">Key Chains</font></li>
<li><font size="1" face="Arial">Mouse Pads</font></li>
<li><font size="1" face="Arial">Luggage Tags</font></li>
<li><font size="1" face="Arial">2006 Calendars</font></li>
<li><font size="1" face="Arial">Magnetic Stickers</font></li>
</ul>

NOTE: I did read the entire 20 responses to the 8-8-2005 post here that
seems to have delt "A-to-Z" with the configuring of collapsible lists -- but
was kiind of hoping that there was more of a "point and click" solutioin
available at this point... rather than canibalizing all of that JS code.
Thanks for your time.

Not sure if this matters, but under my FP2003's HelpAbout I have the
following code:

11.6552.6568 SP2

fyi: I also checked the Java version info, and found this:

Version 1.5.0 (build 1.5.0_06-b05)

OK -- it looks like I've got to modify the "outline.js" file to make things
work -- I missed this <head> reference:

<script language="JavaScript1.2" fptype="dynamicoutline" src="outline.js">
</script>

The doc at the top of "outline.js" says the following:

<!--
// See KB article about changing this dynamic HTML

I've searched the 2003 KB and have not found such an article -- Help!!!

Have you already found out what to change ikn the outline.js because I
have a problem which resembles yours most likely.
I have created a collapsing list and it does not work in the Webbrowers
of IE and Mozilla FF.
I did use FrontPage for the first time so I followed all the help's
orders and all I changed were the "onclick" into "onmouseover" and that
the cursor chagens into a hand once it shows onto the list.
But just to be sure I tried out the list without altering it and no
changes.
In about two hours I will break down and throw this piece of junk out
the window *sorry*
I really need help and suggestions that would just help me a bit
