By default the _hidden folder for _borders are not visible
Have you turned them on using Tools Site Settings Advanced - show hidden folders
| Yes, you're right, it is Apache. OK, this should be my last question on this
| subject [one can hope?], now:
|
| When I go to my local site, click publish, the folders of both sites are
| viewable...the remote site includes folders for borders w/subs, and several
| other sites which appear to be administrative in nature. These folders do not
| exist on the local site, I suspect because it was generated with FP98.
|
| I open the remote site and click on the borders/top/ folder and it comes up
| as an unfinished template-type page with the "insert this page in
| navigation..." msg. As does the border/left, Which certainly explains why the
| [up] link displays the "can't find" msg.
|
| Seems to me that the problems is the missing folders in the local site. So,
| I'm thinking if I publish the remote to the local, that should put those
| missing folders on the local. Then I could go in and copy/paste border
| navigation from one of the "good pages", or if that doesn't work, just
| recreate the borders in the new folder. Or, can I just click on "new folder"
| on the local, name it borders, etc., and go from there?
|
| Also, puzzling to me, is that on my local, in code, the navigation info for
| borders is all there in each page but appears to be "greyed out" or lighter
| than the rest of the print. This is the way that FP98 did the shared border
| thing. Does that have to be removed on each page so as not to conflict? Your
| thoughts.?
|
| I really, really, appreciate the help I get here. As you can easily see I'm
| not a computer person; I'm just using this as a tool to provide information
| and research. Thank you again, so much for all your help and encouragement.
