Frontpage 2000 Question
Can anyone help me here? I am just trying to stick a single page on the web with a photo and some text. I have used Frontpage to make the page, it has a title, a scrolling marque, a picture and then a little text underneath.
I can upload it with smart ftp but when I view it its all there except the picture, all you see is the little red x in the box.
The pic itself is quite small (approx 35k) I've tried it as a jpeg and a gif but without sucess.
Am I doing something wrong?

I couldn't use the built in publisher part as the URL I was uploading to apparently 'wasn't compatable with fornt page extensions' or something like that.
I managed to sort it anyway, I wasnt putting the objects on the the index.html page. Now it works fine.
Does anyone here use it regularly? what do you think of it?
any tips warnings etc?
It looks pretty powerful and I'd like to know more about it but I hate reading the readmes!
Thanks for your help guys

No, but I regularly have to debug/clean up what it produces
what do you think of it?
Best left unsaid, I think.
any tips warnings etc?
Learn HTML. Not rocket science by any stretch. Take you a day or so
FP is OK for those who just want a quick homepage. If you're going to be doing any serious site work you will end up with fat, inefficient code and unnecessarily large pages. And if you intend to do any server-side scripting, FP will more often than not scr*w it up for you. YMMV of course.
