You can use background sound to play a sound when a visitor opens one of your Web pages. It's a good idea to set the sound to loop only once because this method does not allow your visitor to turn it off. Find out more at: http://www.microsoftfrontpage. com/usingfp/3partyarticles.html |

FRONTPAGE FEATURED IN PC MAGAZINE In the February 5th issue of PC Magazine, Neil Randall takes a look at FrontPage Server Extensions. "Understanding FrontPage Server Extensions" can help you plan your Web server needs and determine if the server extensions are installed or whether various features in FrontPage are functioning properly. To find out more go to: http://www.zdnet.com/pcmag/stories/reviews/ 0,6755,2682166,00.html INSERTING A MACROMEDIA FLASH MOVIE Instructions on using FrontPage and Plug-In properties to insert a Macromedia Flash movie into a Web page can be found at: http://www.microsoftfrontpage.com/content/KBarticles/ KBarticles.htm CREATE BANNER ADS USING THE IFRAME TAG The IFRAME tag allows Web authors to insert a frame in the middle of a Web page. This article explains how to use this tag to create alternating "banner advertisements". Check it out here: http://www.microsoftfrontpage.com/content/KBarticles/ KBarticles.htm SPECIFYING A SERIES OF FONTS IN THE FONT TAG This article describes how to specify a series of fonts by using the Font list in FrontPage or modifying the FONT tag directly. When you specify a series of fonts, the Web browser attempts to display the text in the first font in the series. If this font is not installed on the computer that you are using to view the page, the browser displays the text by using the next font in the series and so on. Find out more at: http://www.microsoftfrontpage.com/content/KBarticles/ KBarticles.htm USING ASP TO MAKE DHTML-ENABLED TABLES Microsoft Active Server Pages (ASP) can be used to display information from a database on a Web page. Dynamic HTML (DHTML) can then be used to reflect any edits of the information in the browser by immediately changing how the edits are displayed. Here's how: http://www.microsoftfrontpage.com/content/KBarticles/ KBarticles.htm |
