Stopping Frontpage from messing with urls

M

Martin Lines

How do I stop Frontpage 2003 from automatically "correcting" urls that I have
placed in a page. It keeps repointing them to my hard disk.


THe url should be:

<body
onload="FP_preloadImgs(/*url*/'../images/btn_avondassettsept_grey.gif')"
bgcolor="#D2E7F6" topmargin="0" leftmargin="0" rightmargin="0"
bottommargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0">

Frontpage always corrects it to:

<body
onload="FP_preloadImgs(/*url*/'file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/mlines/My%20Documents/My%20Homestuff/MS%20Frontpage%20Version%20of%20Website/images/btn_avondassettsept_grey.gif')"
bgcolor="#D2E7F6" topmargin="0" leftmargin="0" rightmargin="0"
bottommargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0">

The images are already imported, and I have just imported them again to no
avail.

The *corrected* line indicates that you're trying to link to a file on your
hard drive. Are you sure you're linking to the image in your web?

Make sure you have your web open and then a page.
What is happening is an indication that you're editing the page without opening FrontPage, then the
web, and then the page.

If FP is generating the code, you can't change it and then re-open the page in FP.
