Frontpage has two functionalities that allow you to split a page into sections containing text and graphics. These are tables and frames. Up to this point, we've been aligning text on a line by adding spaces using the Formatted paragraph style. You can also use tables to align text. Using tables, form fields are aligned (Chapter 7 is devoted to working with forms). You can also use Cascading Style Sheets to format page elements. It should be noted that cascading style sheets are only supported in browsers latest versions.
Note
Browsers ignore formatting elements such as whitespace lines. The exception is when the Formatted style or symbol is used non-breaking space. In HTML code, the sequence of characters is used to indicate a non-breaking space. Using a set of such sequences makes it possible to display text with several consecutive spaces on a page loaded in the browser. In Frontpage, the non-breaking space character can be inserted using the Symbol dialog box (first on the first line).
Designing Tables
The most important tool for developing the layout of a Web page is a table. The functions of tables when creating Web pages are varied. First of all, I would like to highlight the following:
aligning data by inserting into table cells (while providing the ability to separate data with lines of varying thickness);
representation of text in the form of columns;
alignment of input fields and their names in forms;
distribution of text and graphics into different columns;
creating a frame around text or graphics;
placement of graphic images on both sides of the text (or all sides) and vice versa;
placement of text along the outline graphic image;
creating a colored background for a text fragment or a separate image;
including tables within other tables.
During the creation of a table, the following properties are set in the Insert Table dialog box: the number of rows and columns, the horizontal occupied area of ​​the page, the thickness of the lines separating cells and limiting the table, the size of the intervals between the content and the inner edge of the cell borders, table alignment, etc. . You can change the table property values ​​later. At any time, you can delete one or several rows or columns, merge adjacent cells, format the contents of one cell or selected range in a special way, etc. As you enter data, the cell size increases vertically and horizontally within the limits set for the table and column.
Note
You can set the width of the table either in pixels (fixed width) or as a percentage of the width of the browser window or frame in which the page is included. The width of table columns is specified either as a percentage of the table width or in pixels (fixed width). If the width of an individual column or an entire table is specified in pixels, then the way the table is displayed in the browser depends on the screen resolution set on the user's computer.
Displaying Tabular Data
In a classic table, rows and columns are strictly demarcated. To obtain such a table, you must perform the following sequence of actions:
1. Download Frontpage.
2. Activate the New command of the Web submenu of the File menu.
3. The New dialog box will load. By default, the One Page Web template is selected. In the Specify The Location Of The New Web field, enter the name of the Web server and Web site. Name the Web site, for example, TestTables. Click OK.
4. Go to Folders view mode. Double-click the Default.htm file name. The home page will open in Page view.
5. Press the key to insert a blank line at the top of the page
6. Open the Table menu and activate the Table command of the Insert submenu. As a result, the Insert Table dialog box will open (Figure 61). This window displays the default table property values. The elements of the Insert Table dialog box are described in Table 6.1.

Figure 6.1. Insert Table Dialog Box

Table 6.1. Table properties

Dialog element Table property
Insert Table windows
Rows Number of rows in the table
Columns Number of columns in the table
Alignment Table alignment method (default is left alignment)
Border Size Thickness of dividing and bounding lines in pixels Default value - 0 If this value is not changed, then the table frame is not displayed in the browser, but in Frontpage it is indicated by a dotted line
Cell Padding The amount of space (in pixels) between the edges of the cell and its contents (default value is 1)
Cell Spacing Spacing (in pixels) between adjacent cells (default value is 2)
Specify Width Table width This value is set either in pixels (In Pixels switch) or as a percentage of the width of the browser window or frame in which the page is included (In Percent switch)

7. Do not change any of the values. Click OK. As a result, a table will be created with two rows and two columns. Select the table with using the Table command in the Select submenu of the Table menu. Press the key to delete the table. If you didn't create a blank line at the beginning of the page in step 5, do it now.
8. Click the Insert Table button on the Table toolbar. A table prototype will appear in front of you, where it is very easy to specify how many rows and columns the table should contain. Click on the second cell in the second row, as shown in the following image. In this case, a table consisting of two rows and two columns (four cells) will also be created.
We looked at two ways to create a table. When you use the Insert Table button on the toolbar, the default values ​​are applied. If you activate the Table command in the Insert submenu of the Table menu, you independently determine the values ​​of the parameters of the table being created.
Note
Using the Insert Table button, you can create a table containing many more rows and columns than initially displayed in the prototype:
When you move the mouse pointer off the edge, the prototype automatically expands.
Table properties
The values ​​assigned to the properties of a table define it appearance.
1. In the top left cell of the table we created, enter the number 5.
Press the key to move to the cell on the right and enter the following sentence:
This is quite a long sentence. Your table should look like the following image. The width of this table reaches almost 100% of the window width.

2. Press the down arrow key twice to move the cursor outside the table. Insert three empty lines after the table by pressing the key three times.
Note
If you place the cursor in the last cell and press the key, a new row will be added to the table, and the cursor will move to the first cell of the new row.
3. Activate the Table command of the Insert submenu of the Table menu and disable the Specify Width option at the bottom of the dialog box (the input field of the same name will become unavailable). Click OK. As a result, a second table will appear, the width of which is much smaller than the first.
4. Enter the number 1 in the left cell of the first row of the table, press the key, causing the cursor to move to the second cell of the first row, and enter a sentence. This is quite a long sentence
Move to the left cell of the second line using the key and enter the number 2. Press the key again (the cursor will move to the right cell of the second line) and enter a sentence: This is just a sentence
The width of each column is set according to the longest line in that column (Figure 6.2).

Rice. 6.2. The Specify Width property is set for the top table, but not for the bottom table.

5. Right-click on the second table and select the Table Properties command in the context menu, which will open the dialog box of the same name shown in Fig. 6.3. As in the dialog box opened using the Table command of the Insert submenu of the Table menu (Fig. 6.1), in it you can set table parameters such as alignment, the thickness of the dividing and limiting lines of the table, the size of the intervals between the edges of the cell and its contents, the interval between adjacent cells and table width. In addition, it is possible to determine the height of the table, select a color for the solid background of the table or a background image, and specify the color for the dividing lines. In the Float list box, you can specify which way to move the table - to the right or to the left - to place text or an image to the left or right of the table. By default, the Float field is set to Default. According to this setting, text can only be located below or above the table.

Fig 6 3 Table Properties dialog box

6. Set the following values ​​for the table properties: Border Size - 5, Cell Padding - 6, Cell Spacing - 8. Confirm the settings by clicking on the OK button. Your table should look like the following image. Right-click on the right cell of the first row of the top table (Figure 6-2) and select the Cell Properties command in the context menu. A dialog box of the same name will open (Figure 6-4). The elements it contains are described in Table 6.2.

Cell Properties windows
Function
Horizontal Ahgnment Aligning cell contents horizontally The following options are available: Left, Center, Right. Left alignment is set by default
Vertical Alignment Aligning cell contents vertically The following options are available: Top (top edge), Middle (center), Baseline (aligning cell contents along the reference line), Bottom (bottom edge) Center alignment is set by default
Rows spanned This field indicates how many rows you want to stretch this cell.
Columns spanned This field specifies how many columns you want to stretch the cell into.
Header Cell Formatting a cell as a row or column header (sets the cell text to bold)
No Wrap Prohibition of hyphenation within a cell in a Web browser; otherwise the text breaks if the browser window is too narrow to display it completely
Specify Width Specifies the cell height in pixels or as a percentage of the total table height (only if the Specify Height option is active). If this option is disabled, the height of the cell is automatically changed so that the entered text or object placed in it fits completely
Borders In this area of ​​the window, you can define the color for dividing and limiting lines, which can be either one-color or two-color. In the first case, use the Border input field, in the second - any two fields from the three proposed. In the latter case, the frame turns out to be voluminous
Background Creating a background for a cell (either a solid color or containing an image)

Property values ​​can be changed for either a single cell or a selected range.

Note

When changing the cell width, make sure that the total width of the cells in the row does not exceed 100%, otherwise the table cells will not display correctly.

1. In the Horizontal Alignment list box of the Cell Properties dialog box, select Center, and in the Vertical box
Alignment - item Top (align to the top edge). In the Border Size field, enter the value 1. Confirm the settings by clicking OK.
As a result, the way the data is arranged in the cell will change, and the thickness of the dividing and limiting lines will become equal to one pixel.
2. Select the bottom row of the table and right-click. From the context menu, select the Cell Properties command. Enter a value of 2 in the Columns Spanned field and click OK. The resulting table should look like the one below. The leftmost cell will overlap the top two, but there should be an additional cell to the right.

Note
You can select a certain number of cells within a table as follows: position the mouse pointer to the left of the cell from which you will begin the selection, and when it changes to an arrow pointing upward to the right, press the left mouse button and select the required cells.
Note
The columns in the table you create may have different widths than those shown in the figure. This is due to differences in monitor resolutions.
3. Press a key combination or activate the Undo Edit Properties command on the Edit menu to undo the changes.
4. Select the first row of the top table, open the Cell Properties dialog box and enter a value of 2 in the Rows Spanned field. Finally, click OK. The top two cells will move to the left, and the bottom two cells will move to the right.

5. Click on the Undo button on the toolbar. Go to the left cell of the first row of the top table and open the Cell Properties dialog box. Set the Specify Width option and activate the In Pixels switch to be able to independently specify the cell width in pixels (the Specify Width input field will become available). Enter the value 40 in the Specify Width input field and click OK. Both cells in the first column will increase in size.

7. Activate the Undo button, click on the right cell of the second row and open the Table menu. This menu contains four submenus. Table menu commands are described in table. 6.3.

Table 6.3. Table menu commands

Team Description
Draw Table Allows you to draw a table in the same way as using a pencil on a sheet of paper
Table submenu Insert When this command is activated, the Insert Table dialog box opens. In it you can set the parameters of the table being created, which will be inserted in the position where the cursor is located (if the cursor is located in a cell of another table, the second table will be placed in it)
Insert Rows Or Columns submenu Insert The Insert Rows Or Columns dialog box specifies the number of rows and columns that can be inserted above, below, to the right, or to the left of the selection.
Cell submenu Insert Inserts a new cell to the left of the selected cell that is shifted to the right
Caption submenu Insert Designed to insert an empty line above the table. This row is associated with a table: when a table is selected or deleted, the header is also selected or deleted. By default, the table header is set to center alignment, but it can be left or right aligned
Delete Cells Used to delete selected cells
Merge Cells Allows you to merge multiple cells in both a row and column
Split Cells In the Split Cell dialog box, you can set the selected cells to be divided into both rows and columns
Cell, Row, Column, Table submenu Select The first command is used to select the current cell, the second - the current row, the third - the current column, and the fourth - the entire table
Distribute Rows Evenly, Distribute Columns Evenly The first command allows you to set the same width for selected rows, and the second - for selected columns
Autofit Reduces the length of each column to the size that the information contained in them directly occupies. Enabling this command has the same effect as disabling the Specify Width option in the Insert Table dialog box, i.e. The length of the cells will automatically change depending on the length of the entered text or the length of the object placed in them
Text To Table submenu Convert Allows you to convert selected text into a table. Activating this command opens a dialog box for selecting a delimiter character. Use commas to separate column contents, and paragraph markers to separate rows.
Table To Text submenu Convert Allows you to convert tabular data into text, with the contents of each cell forming a separate paragraph
Caption, Cell, Table Properties submenu These three commands provide access to the Caption Properties, Cell Properties, and Table Properties windows.

Note
To select multiple non-adjacent cells, hold down the
Menu Table. Let's take a closer look at some of the Table menu commands described in Table. 6.3
1. Activate the Table command of the Insert submenu. In the dialog box that opens, click OK without changing the default settings. As a result, a table of two rows and two columns will appear in the cell.

Note
When we created the second table (step 3 of the second exercise of this chapter), we disabled the Specify Width option in the Insert Table window. At step 1 of the third exercise, we entered the value 1 in the Border Size field of the Table Properties window. In Frontpage, these settings were saved, so when creating a new table in the Insert Table window, by default the Specify Width option will be disabled, and the Border Size field will contain the value 1.
1. Click first on the Undo button, and then on the left cell of the first row of the table. Select the Rows Or Columns command from the Insert submenu. As a result, the dialog box of the same name will open

Agree with the default settings: the Rows and Below Selection switches are selected, and the value 1 is entered in the Number Of Rows field. Click the OK button. A new row will appear under the first row of the table
3. Again activate the Insert Rows Or Columns command of the Insert submenu. Set the Columns and Left Of Selections radio buttons (to the left of the selected area) After this, click on the OK button. The resulting table should look like the following figure

4. Activate the Cell command of the Insert submenu. As a result, a new cell will be inserted into the table, and the cell located on the right will move outside the line to the right. The cursor is automatically placed in the new cell

To select a cell, activate the Cell command of the Select submenu (select a cell) or press the key when clicking on a cell. To delete cells, use the Delete Cell command
5. Activate the Caption command of the Insert submenu. The cursor will be located above the table in the center. Enter the following sentence. This is the table header
6. Select the bottom row in the first table Then select the Merge Cells command. As a result, all dividing lines between cells will be removed in the bottom row

7. Click on the rightmost cell of the first row and activate the Split Cells command. The Split Cells dialog box will open

Accept the default settings and click OK. The specified cell will be split into two

8. Activate the Table command of the Select submenu and press the key. The table will be deleted. Click the Undo button to restore it.
Note
There is another way to select a table: double-click to the left of the table (those of its limits)
9. Open the Table Properties dialog box and enter the value 0 in the Border Size input field. Click OK. As a result, the table boundaries will be indicated by dotted lines.
Drawing a table
So far, you have created tables using the Table command of the Insert submenu of the Table menu. In this case, the website is generated automatically in accordance with the set property values. After creating the table, you changed these values ​​in the Tab!c Pioperties dialog box, added and deleted columns and rows, merged cells, and so on. through the commands of Tabie. Frontpage offers another way to create and edit tables, according to which the buttons on the Able toolbar are used to process tables. The Draw Table button allows you to manually draw a table. The Eraser button is used to remove sections of crucible lines from cells. The remaining buttons duplicate the corresponding Table menu commands
1. Place the cursor in a blank line between two tables, then press the mouse button twice and the up arrow key once.
Note
It's a good idea to leave a blank row between tables when creating them, as Frontpage makes it difficult to insert rows between tables. It’s easier to remove unnecessary ones after finishing the layout.
1. From the Table menu, activate the Draw Table command. As a result, the Table toolbar will appear and the mouse pointer will look like a pencil. In table 6 4 describes the Table toolbar buttons
3. Place the mouse pointer between the existing tables on the left side of the page and move it first horizontally to half the page, and then down a distance that is equal to the height of the second table.
Chapter 6. Tables and lul frames
4. Place the mouse pointer on the top border of the table, near the left corner. Move the pointer horizontally a distance equal to half the length of the table. Move it down to the bottom border. The table now has two columns.
5. Create three rows in the right column (the height of the rows can be arbitrary).
6. Select the second column of the table. Click the Distribute Rows Evenly button on the toolbar, which will cause all three rows to be the same height.

7. Draw a line dividing the second row of the right column into two parts.
8. Draw two lines dividing the bottom line in the right column into three parts. The width of the first new cell is set equal to the width of the cell located on top

9. Place the pointer on the right border of the first column. As a result, the pointer will take the form of a double-headed arrow.
10. Move the column border to the right to expand it.
11. Activate the Erase button on the Table toolbar. The mouse pointer will appear as an eraser. Drag the eraser perpendicular to the line that separates the rightmost and middle cells in the bottom row. As a result, this dividing line will disappear (see below).

12. Click on the Eraser button again (the normal view of the mouse pointer will be restored). Position the pointer at the top of the second column. When the pointer turns into a small black arrow pointing down, click to highlight the column.
13. Press the key and move the pointer to the right, positioning it above the outermost column. Once you click, the outer two columns will be highlighted.
14. Click the Distribute Columns Evenly button on the toolbar. The resulting table is shown below.

15. Select the table using the Table command of the Select submenu of the Table menu, and press the key to delete it.
Table 6 4. Table toolbar buttons

The exercises we performed are designed to demonstrate how wide the possibilities of FiontPage are in terms of creating tables. All operations are carried out in WYSIWYG mode; at any stage of work, you can see how the created table will look in the browser.

Importing text information into a table.

In order to correctly import text into a table, it must be prepared accordingly; text fragments placed in adjacent table cells must be separated from one another by special characters (delimiters), such as commas. Most often, punctuation marks are used as separators. Next, perform the following sequence of actions:
1. Click below the bottom table, press the key

2. Select the entered text; menu 1 T able and activate the command text To T able Submenu Comen *
3. In the Convert Text To Table dialog box that loads, select the Other switch, delete the dots in the field on the right and enter a semicolon Click on the OK button As a result, the text will be imported into the table (Figure 6.5.)

Figure 6.5. Table created from test information

Note
HTML does not support tab characters If you convert text information into a table that uses tabs to separate sets of information, these characters will be removed and the table will not be created correctly. Instead of tabulators, you should use punctuation marks, which are not used in the text file. In this example, a semicolon is used because the text contains commas and hyphens. An alternative character is a paragraph marker * You may want to import content into the table text file But first you must import text from the file and pages) by activating the File command of the Insert menu. It should be remembered that Frontpage does not import Cyrillic text correctly (it has no problems with Latin). Therefore, if you want to extract similar text from a file and place it on page, open the file in a text editor such as Notepad, and transfer the text to the page using the clipboard - Note. ed.
4. Select the bottom (empty) row in the table, if there is one, and delete it.
5. Right-click on the table and activate the Table Properties command from the context menu. In the Alignment list box of the dialog box that opens, select the Center element, then turn off the Specify Width option. In the Cell Padding field, enter the value 4, thus specifying the distance between the edges of the cell and its contents. After completing all of the above settings, click on the OK button.
6. Select the isepxmolo line, right-click on it and open the Cell Properties dialog box. In this window, set the Header Cell option and select Left in the Horizontal Alignment list box. Finally, click OK.
7. In the Table menu, activate the Caption command of the Insert submenu. Click the Bold button on the Formatting toolbar. The table title you enter will be in bold. For example, enter the following title. FULL NAME. and year of birth of employees
8. Select the first row of the table and click on the Fill Color list box on the Table toolbar. In the list that opens, select the Aqua color (third square from the left in the second row) and click OK.

9. Select the remaining rows in the table and open the Cell Properties dialog box. Specify a yellow color in the Color list box in the Back-ground area, and in the Horizontal Alignment list box, select Center.
Click the OK button. The resulting table should look like the one shown in Fig. 6.6.
10. Click the Save button to save the created tables.
11. From the File menu, select Preview In Browser. In the dialog box that loads, select Internet Explorer 5.0 browser and click on the Preview button. In Fig. 6.7 presented Homepage Test Tables Web site containing the table we created. If you are using another browser, open this page in it and see how the table we created will be displayed.
The latest browser versions have expanded support for tables. Previously, there were significant differences between the way tables were displayed in different browsers. Some browsers did not support them at all. You should review your work in different browsers and evaluate how your tables look in them. Currently, the browser market is dominated by products from Netscape and Microsoft. These two browsers support tables quite well.

Using tables when designing a Web page

Tables are useful for dividing a page into areas in which information will be presented.
Follow these steps:
1. In Page view, create a new page. Insert one blank line at the beginning of the page.
2. Activate the Clip Art command of the Picture submenu of the Insert menu. The Clip Art Gallery dialog will load. Scroll down the window to see the Places icon. Double click on it. The window will display images related to the Places category. Select an image with the Taj Mahal architectural monument and click the Insert Clip button in the panel that appears. The image will be placed on the page.
3. Place the cursor under the image and enter the following text: “Monument of Indian architecture. Mausoleum of Sultan Shah Jahan and his wife. Located 2 kilometers from the city of Agra. Five-domed structure made of white marble with a mosaic of colored stones. Height is 74 meters. K The Taj Mahal is adjacent to four minarets and a garden. A painting by the famous Russian artist V.V. Vereshchagin, who visited India, introduces this example of Indo-Muslim architecture."
4. Highlight the entered text. Press the key combination to copy the text to the clipboard. Place your cursor at the end of the last sentence and insert a space. Press the key combination. As a result, the text array will be increased, which will allow you to further achieve the desired result - surround the picture with text.
5. Move the pointer to the beginning of the page. Activate the Table command of the Insert submenu of the Table menu. In the loaded window, enter the value 2 in the Rows field, -1 in the Columns field, 0 in the Border Size field, and turn off the Specify Width option. The new table will take the place of the graphics and text, which will move down. The result is shown in the following figure.

6. Drag the image to the top row of the table.
7. In the bottom line of the table, enter the name of the monument "Taj Mahal" Set the text to bold and align it to the center of the gabtatsa by clicking respectively on the Bold and Center buttons of the Formatting tools panel
8 Open the Table Properties dialog box and highlight Left in the Float list box. Click OK. As a result, the text will be placed around the table. In other text rubbish WOT the effect is called wrapping

9 Save the page, giving it the name Tatj _Mahal and the title Taj Mahal In the File menu, activate the Preview In Browser command Select the browser and click on the Pieview button In Fig. 6-8 the page is displayed in the Internet Explorer 5 O browser
As you've seen, tables make it easy to align pictures and captions. Create a few template pages that use tables to demonstrate how powerful they are as a means of presenting information.

Figure 6.8. Wrapping text around an image

You may have your own ideas regarding the use of tables on a Web page. Implement them. Experiment until you achieve the desired result. This is the only way you can get a successfully designed page.

Work with personnel

Klapbi, like tables, are used to place information on individual pages about guests. Frames are windows placed on a Web page and designed to display other Web pages. Any number of frames can be placed on a page. Using frames it is very convenient to present information on a Web site with complex system headings In this case, you should create a page with two frames: a table of contents frame and a main frame. The table of contents frame contains a list of headings that are links. When a link category is activated, the corresponding page is loaded into the main frame.
Next, you'll complete a simple tutorial designed to demonstrate HR principles (this example will only have three rubrics). This example we will dedicate to architectural monuments.
1. Create a new single-page Web site and name it Frames. In Page view mode, activate the Page command of the New submenu of the File menu. In the New dialog box that loads, go to the Frame Pages tab, which displays page templates with frames (Fig. 6.9).
By default, the Banner and Contents template is selected. The Preview area presents the composition of the page that will be created based on this template, and the Description area provides a description of the template. Select each of the templates one by one to read their description and find out what pages can be created based on them.

Rice. 6.9. New Dialog Box (Frame Pages Tab)

2. After reviewing the template options, select the Header, Footer and Contents template. Click OK.
The result will be a page containing four frames: a frame with a header (top frame), a table of contents frame on the left, a main frame, and a footer frame (bottom frame) (Figure 6.10). Each frame contains two buttons: Set Initial Page (used to select the initial page, i.e. the page that is first displayed in the frame after
loading the frames page into the browser) and New Page (clicking the New button
Page results in a blank initial page).

A frame has a number of properties that you can control. Frame property values ​​are set in the Frame Properties dialog box. To open this window, right-click on a frame (for example, a table of contents frame) and activate the Frame Properties command from the context menu. As a result, the dialog box shown in Fig. will open. 6.14. Elements of the Frame Properties window are described in table. 6.5.

Table 6.5. Frame properties

Element Description
Name When creating a hyperlink on a frames page, you must specify in the Create Hyperiink dialog box the name of the frame into which the corresponding page will load when the link is activated
Initial Page Initial page This input field indicates which page will be displayed first in the frame when it loads
Frame Size This area contains two input fields - Width (width) and Row Height (row height). Values ​​can be set here in pixels, in relative units or as a percentage of the browser window size
Margins This area determines the size of the frame margins (the intervals between the page content and the frame boundaries) and pixels
Resizable In Browser (resize in browser) If this option is set, the user can change the frame size in their browser
Show Scrollbars (display scroll bars) This list box contains three items If Needed (if necessary) - scroll bars are displayed only if the page content does not fit in the window, Never (never) - scroll bars are not displayed, regardless of the amount of information on the page, Always (constantly ) - scroll bars are displayed constantly Which of these items should be selected depends on the content of the pages that will be loaded into the frame For example, if the frame is located at the top of the page and contains information common to all pages (for example, a navigation bar), you should select Nevei Please note that the way the page is displayed depends on the screen resolution. Therefore, the best option is to select the If Needed option. If you want to provide the user with maximum opportunities to view information in the frame, select the Always item

Click the Frames Page button in the Frame Properties dialog box, which opens the Page Properties dialog box. In the Frame Spacing input field, you can set the thickness of the dividing lines between frames on the page. The Show Borders option determines whether lines between frames will be displayed.

You can create additional frames on the frames page. Perform the following steps: in Page view mode, hold down the key and move the top border of the main frame down slightly, then release the key and mouse button. As a result, a frame will be created above the main frame (Fig. 6.15), which does not contain a page.

Rice. 6.15. New frame

We hope you are convinced that frames are a very convenient means of presenting information. One of the problems that arise when working with frames is that not all browsers support them. Netscape Navigator supports frames starting from version 20, and Internet Explorer - from version 3 0 Frame support was introduced in HTML 3 2 Some users still use older browsers So be aware that a significant portion of your audience may not be able to view frame pages properly. The solution to this problem is to create a No Flames page (no frames). If the user's browser does not support frames, the No Frames page will be displayed instead. Frontpage will automatically generate
No Frames page when creating a frames page You can verify this by clicking on the No Frames tab at the bottom of the Frontpage window when the frames page is open. Figure 6-16 shows the No Frames page created by default. On this page you can recommend the user to use the browser , supporting frames. You should also create links to those Web sites from which you can download a browser that supports frames (for example, to the Microsoft Web site from which you can download the Internet Explorer 5.0 browser)
Note
A page with frames takes longer to load than a regular Web page because it actually loads multiple pages. Frames should be used judiciously

Figure 6.16. No Flames page in Pasu e view mode

Designing frame pages in Frontpage is a breeze, thanks to the numerous functionality provided by Frontpage, as well as the fact that in Frontpage page editing is carried out in WYSIWYG mode

Before you start working in FrontPage, I recommend that you create a folder specifically for your site. It can be called “site”, “my site”, “my super-duper site”, or, if you prefer English, “my site”, “site”.

On the Internet, files with Russian names, alas, do not work (but this does not mean that they will not work on your computer), so, out of long-established habit, I will use the default folder site. You, too, can begin to develop this habit, but this is only at your request :)

You can place the created folder anywhere, on drive C, in “My Documents”, on the desktop... in principle, it doesn’t matter, the main thing is that you have it's convenient to work with her.

However, I do not advise you to create a folder directly on your desktop. The path to it (you can see it in the folder properties, or in the folder itself, it is indicated in the “address” line), in this case, will be very long. For example: "C:Documents and SettingsUsersUser001desktopsite". True, it can be short, for example: “C:WINDOWSDesktopsite”. It all depends on the settings of your computer.

If the path still turns out to be long, then you can create a folder for the site on drive C (or D), then its path will be much shorter: “C:site”. And in order to open a folder quickly and easily, you need to create a shortcut to it and place it in any place convenient for you, for example, on the same desktop.

Why care about the size of the folder path? This will not affect the quality of website creation in any way, but I have learned from my own experience that working with folders whose path is not very long is much more convenient. The example will use the following path to the folder “C:Documents and Settingssite”

Separate folder for the site - the thing is extremely convenient, sometimes even irreplaceable. Your materials and created pages will not be lost anywhere, but will quietly lie in their own separate folder.

Using FrontPage, creating a website should not be difficult for even a less experienced user. For example, you can select a ready-made website, change the standard data to your own, add something, delete something, and that’s it, the site can be posted on the Internet. You can create a new website by selecting File(File) | Create(New). The following window will open to the right of the workspace:

By clicking on the link Other Website Templates You will see that there are many more different types of web sites from one-page to corporate. For the sake of experimentation, you can try to select a website and create a site in this template.

But I actually don’t support this way of creating a site, since FrontPage creates a lot of unnecessary folders for a ready-made web site. And in general there is a lot of unnecessary stuff.

Therefore, I propose a slightly different approach. I suggest creating a website from scratch by selecting the option in the create a new page window Empty page. Or you can not select anything, but simply close the window for creating a new page, since this item is already selected by default.

And in this empty space we will begin to create the first page of the site, or rather, its template.

If you are more or less familiar with the Internet, you have probably noticed that many sites consist of tables. Some tables are clearly visible, others are completely invisible. This is what we will do site consisting of tables.

Now tables as a means of creating a framework are gradually becoming obsolete; they are being replaced by layout using layers. But the tables still remain simple and effective way page formatting. For starters, this is just right.

There are several ways to create a table in FrontPage. Now I will describe each of them in detail, so that later you can choose the most suitable one for yourself. But since you can only learn through practice, I advise you not only to read the text below, but also to follow all the steps described.

So, first way. From the command menu bar, select the command Table(Table), and in the drop-down menu - the item Insert(Insert) with an arrow. Move your mouse over this arrow and another drop-down menu will open in front of you. Select an item Table(Table).

The first way to create a table in FrontPage is using the menu Table

After selecting this command, a window will open in front of you where you can specify various parameters for the table being created.

What parameters can you set? In the first area Size you can choose the required quantity lines(rows) and speakers(columns).

In the next area Position(Layout) can be customized:

  • location of the table on the page - for this in the field Alignment(Aligment) you need to select one of the following values:
  • Default(Default) - then the table will be placed at the discretion of the user’s browser, most likely at the left edge;
  • Left(Left);
  • On right(Right);
  • Centered(Center);
  • the distance between the cell border and its contents - to do this, enter the required value in the field Cell margins(Cell Padding);
  • distance between table cells - to do this, just enter the required value in the field Cell spacing(Cell Spasing);
  • table width - note if the checkbox Exact width(Specify width) is removed, the size of the table will depend only on its contents. If the checkbox is checked, you can indicate the width in pixels(in pixels) or in percentages(in percent). I’ll say right away that the width for the main table (which we are creating now) is better done as a percentage, then it will change depending on the size of the user’s window.

In area Borders(Border) can be configured:

  • width of the table borders - to do this you just need to enter the required value in the field Border Size(Border size);
  • color, light and dark sides of the table

In area Background(Background) you can set a color for the background of the table or select a background image.

For example, let's take the settings that I specified earlier. Choose OK and look at the result.

Great! Now let's try to use for comparison second way creating a table in FrontPage. On the toolbar Standard(Standard) find the icon Add table(Insert Table) and click on it. This will open a small table layout.

A quick way to create a table is to use a button Add table(Insert Table)

While holding down the left mouse button, select the required number of rows and columns. So, for example, two rows and one column are highlighted in the figure. If you move your mouse to the right or bottom edge of the layout, it will expand. After you release the mouse button, the table itself will instantly appear.

This method of creating a table is much easier and faster than the first one. There is one “but” - here you cannot pre-specify the parameters of the table being created. Therefore, if you are going to create another table using the second method, you can change its parameters only after you have created it.

I’ll tell you how to do this a little later, but now it’s more visual, third way creating a table. This - drawing table with mouse. We won't use it now, but if you ever need to create complex tables, you'll know how to do it.

The first step is exactly the same as in the first case. In the command menu bar you need to select the command Table(Table). But the next step is completely different. When you select a team Table(Table), a drop-down menu will open in front of you. Look closely, it has a double arrow at the bottom. Move your mouse over this arrow. Now you have the entire list of commands in front of you.

Command menu Table

This time we need a point Draw a table(Draw Table). Click. The following small window will open.

Drawing a table consists of several stages: the outer rectangular outline of the table is drawn, lines are drawn dividing the table into rows and columns, and excess lines are erased.

First, make sure that the table drawing tool is turned on (it should appear on a lighter background than the other buttons). Now, when the cursor enters the document area, it will take the shape of a pencil.

Now move your mouse cursor to the top left vertex of the proposed table. Then, press and hold the left mouse button, move it to the lower right corner of the intended table and release the button. As a result, the outer outline of the table will appear.

Now, using the same pencil, draw lines that form the internal structure of the table.

You can remove unnecessary lines using the tool Eraser(Eraser). It's easy to use. On the toolbar Table(Table) click button Eraser(Eraser). Then move your mouse cursor to the line you want to erase and drag along it. The erased lines will turn red. To disable eraser mode, click the button Eraser(Eraser) again.

Using this method you can also draw a good table, but let's go back to the previous one. We will work with her now.

The first line can be left for the site name, logo, etc. This will be the so-called top of the site. Usually it is left the same for all pages of the site. The next line usually contains text, pictures, photographs, in a word, information. It’s a good idea to leave space at the bottom for counters that will count the number of visitors. You can also write the name of the site creator there :).

But we only have two lines! Will we really have to start all over again? No, what are you! We'll just insert another row. There are several ways to do this.

For example, if you still have the toolbar open Table(Table), new line can be added by clicking the button Add line(Insert row). Do not forget to place the cursor on one of the table rows before doing this. A new line will appear before the line the cursor was on.

The next method for inserting a row is also quite simple. To begin, you just need to select one of the existing lines, click on the right mouse button and... But wait, how to select a line? There is nothing complicated here either. Simply move your mouse cursor over the line you want to highlight.

Then wait until it turns into an arrow and click on it.

The highlighted line looks like this:

And now, without removing the selection, right-click on the selected line. A submenu will open in front of you.

Of all these undoubtedly useful points, we now need only one: Add lines(Insert row).

By the way, you didn’t have to select the line, but simply click on it with the cursor. But you will still need the skill of selecting tables, rows and columns, so get used to it :)

The following method of inserting new rows into a table is much more convenient. And now you yourself will understand why. Place the cursor on the line above (below) where you are going to add new lines. Then refer to our favorite point Table(Table), which is located in command line. Select from the drop-down menu Insert(Insert) | Rows or Columns(Rows or Columns). The following window will open.

You see, at the bottom of the window you can choose the location of the new line - above the selected line (above) or below it (below). Please note that when using the first two methods we were not given such a choice. Let's determine the number of lines, click on OK and see what we got.

Now we have three lines. There was a place for everything, all that remained was to determine where to place the structure of our site. Have you forgotten about her yet? Now we'll look at the easiest way to put structure on the page - by placing it on the second line, next to the "information" middle.

To do this, let's create another table with two columns in the second row. We already know how to create a new table. Moreover, we know three ways to do this! Which one will we use this time?

Let's use the first one for now, since we need to adjust the table parameters from the very beginning. Path to create table: Table(Table) | Insert(Insert) | Table(Table).

In the window that opens, mark one row, two columns and the width of the table borders equal to zero. Set the width of the table to 100% and click OK. The entire table now looks like this:

The small dots in the second line are the same “invisible” table. More precisely, now it is clearly visible, but this is only because at the moment we are in editing mode. And when we switch to view mode, the table will not be visible.

We only need this “invisible” plate to model the appearance of the table, so we made it “invisible”. Now you need to insert another table into the left column. The number of lines should be equal to the number of main points of the structure you have compiled. No need to make columns!

Have you lost the leaf yet? Then we transfer the names of all the main pages (sections) to our table. Titles internal pages(subsections) are not required to be included there. To enter page titles into the table, simply click the mouse in the place where the text will be located and type it on the keyboard.

I will tell you in more detail about entering text and changing its appearance when we fill the site with information.

And now, as promised, I’ll tell you how to change the table parameters after its creation. Remember how we highlighted a table row? Now we need to select the entire table.

If you can’t select a table “manually”, you can simply follow the path Table(Table) | Select(Select) | Table(Table). Now, without removing the selection, right-click on the table. By the way, you can not select the table at all, but I already wrote that this is a very useful skill :)

The already familiar drop-down menu will pop up. Only this time we will need an item Table properties(Table Properties). When you select this item, a window will open that almost completely replicates the window for inserting a new table. In it you can change existing settings to new ones.

By the way, in FrontPage the table frame can also be made “double”, consisting of many squares, with a shadow, etc. All this is available in the top menu Format(Format) | Borders and Shading(Borders and Shading)

In the first tab - Framework(Borders) you can change the appearance of table borders. Look at the possible results after changing the table frame appearance.

In the second tab - Shading - you can set a background image for the table and also select the color of the background and text. But choosing the right color is not easy at all... Therefore, we’ll finish for today, and we’ll talk about colors in the next lesson.

But, wait, what to do with our art, i.e. with created signs? Everything is very simple. They need to be preserved. To do this, select in the top menu File(File) | Save as(Save as). Find the folder on your computer in which we agreed to put the site and save your document in it under the name index.

Why index? Yes, simply because this is how the main page of the site is always designated. And that’s exactly what we were doing now. If you now exit FrontPage and open the document you saved, you will see that it has automatically been saved as index.htm. HTM is short for HTML, do you remember what it is?

It is worth remembering that the “htm” and “html” formats are completely different things. I advise you to immediately choose one thing so that there are no problems later. If you choose the suffix "html", be sure to append it to each page you save, otherwise it will be saved as "htm" by default.

Let me remind you that file names for the site cannot be written in Russian letters. Then, when you put your site on the Internet, these files simply will not open.

One last thing about names. Writing the names of files and pages for a website with a capital letter is, of course, commendable, but extremely inconvenient. I recommend you everything, everything: pages, drawings, archives - write everything in small letters. Believe me, this will help avoid many inaccuracies in the future.

Opening saved "index"

We will now open the "index" document that we saved in the site folder at the end of the previous day. There are several ways to do this. Let's look at each of them, so that later you can choose the best one for yourself.

So, the first way. The index file is an Internet file by default because it is in the format htm (html). So if you open it by double clicking, you will be taken to the browser viewport.

This way to open "index" in FrontPage is to select the command from the top command line File(File), and in the drop-down menu - Edit in Microsoft FrontPage(Edit with Microsoft FrontPage).

If on the menu File You don’t have such an item, which means FrontPage is not installed on your computer as an Internet page editor. To fix this, you need to first open the FrontPage program itself, and then select Service | Options. The following window will open:

In order to work properly with the site, we need the area Editors was FrontPage. If it is not there, then click on the icon in the upper right corner and select there FrontPage (open as HTML). Then click on the button Use as default.

This was the first way to open a file in FrontPage, through a browser window. But it would be more logical to shorten this path. Therefore, in order not to waste time, you can, without opening the file, right-click on it and select from the drop-down menu Open with... (Open with) and find the FrontPage program in the list provided.

And the last, third way. First you need to open the FrontPage program itself, and after that open the entire site by selecting File(File) | Open website(Open web). Or, if you have recently opened index, choose Latest files, and in the drop-down menu required file.

Of course, it doesn’t matter exactly how you open the “index” page in FrontPage, the main thing is that you open it 🙂 Congratulations, another useful skill acquired!

With development Internet an information exchange protocol appeared, the protocol is called HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol- hypertext transfer protocol). Along with this protocol, a service appeared World Wide Web(often called WWW or simply Web), which provides an extensive network of servers HTTP transferring files via Internet.

The main part of these files are Web pages– special files written in the language HTML (HyperText Markup Language– hypertext markup language). Web pages published in Internet by placing such files on servers HTTP (Web sites). Content Web pages may be different and devoted to completely arbitrary topics, but they all use the same basis - language HTML.
Most people who want to create their own website or page are familiar with the language HTML only by hearsay. Therefore, the program can come to their aid Microsoft FrontPage, one of the most famous website builders.

FrontPage, included in the application package Microsoft Office, became the first product widely used for Internet, which combines client and server parts and provides the ability to develop the site as a whole and install it on most popular servers. FrontPage is able to take on all the necessary programming work. However FrontPage It will also become a serious assistant for professional developers who prefer to have full control over the creative process.

Program window FrontPage 2003.

Program FrontPage released by the company Microsoft and is made in the same style as the products included in the package Microsoft Office, so the appearance of the program is practically no different from a word processor Word .

At the top of the window there is a menu bar and two toolbars: Standard and Formatting. You can enable or disable the display of toolbars View menu.
On the left side is View Panel, with which you can switch document modes.
The main part of the window is occupied by the work area, in which one or more windows containing individual documents can be opened.
At the bottom of the window there is status bar, containing background information. Also at the bottom of the window there are three document viewing buttons.
Displaying toolbars.
To manage toolbars in FrontPage you can use the same methods as in Microsoft Word . Namely:
on the menu View need to choose Toolbar item, and in the new submenu that opens - install checkboxes opposite the toolbars you need; or click right click for any reason control panels(or in the area next to it) and use the context menu in the same way.

FrontPage, like other applications Microsoft Office, allows you to add, delete, and rearrange menu items and buttons on toolbars. It is also possible to create completely your own panels.
To do this you need:

IN Service menu choose item Settings
or
V View menu choose Toolbar item, and in the cascade menu that appears - item Settings
As a result of your actions, a dialog box will open Settings, where you can install the necessary panels.

Create a new Web pages.

If you started FrontPage, that means new Web page you have already created (at startup FrontPage a new empty one immediately opens Web page, ready to place text and any other elements).
Create new Web page You can do it in other ways:

Using a button New page on Standard panel tools.
File menu select submenu Create, and then - Page or Web site;
using combinations Ctrl+N;
by using context menu(works in all modes except Tasks and Reports) - for this inside Folder list given Web) you need to right-click and select the item in the context menu that appears Create  Page.

Creating pages using a wizard and templates.

As mentioned above, if you used the menu to create a new page File  New  Page or Web Site, That FrontPage will prompt you to use a template to create a new page.
To do this, it will open a dialog box, the appearance of which is shown below:

On the tab Are common This dialog box displays a list of templates FrontPage currently available. By selecting any of the templates, you can see its description in Sample field.
Creation FrontPage Web.
Microsoft FrontPage Web- this is a set Web pages, image files and other components that can be viewed as a whole.
If you make a website in FrontPage, then the most convenient way to store it is to use FrontPage Web.
the most important plus is the ability to rename files included in FrontPage Web.
Imagine that before publishing your site in Internet You suddenly noticed that a couple of your files are named with Russian names. - “Now you’ll have to go through all the files and change the links manually!” duamete you. This is where it will help FrontPage Web- you can safely rename files, and FrontPage will independently go through all other files included in FrontPage Web and will rename all links to the file you corrected.
I won’t describe all the other advantages, but I would like to say that to use all the possibilities FrontPage, then it is better to use FrontPage Web.
So, to create a new one FrontPage Web click on the arrow located to the left of the New page button on the toolbar and select the item in the drop-down menu that appears Website…

Opening Web pages.

Very often, when creating a website, you have to edit already created Web pages. You can return to the same page as many times as you like to edit it or use parts of it to create new ones. Web pages.

Open an existing one Web page possible in any of the existing modes.

From mode Page Views There are four ways to open an existing page:

1 way

If you are working with FrontPage Web, then simply select the desired file in Folder list and double click on it with your mouse.

Method 2

From the File menu, select Latest files. From the cascading menu that appears, select the desired file.

3 way

Using the Open File dialog box: File  Open.

Preview.

To see how your page looks directly in the browser, you can use the Preview tab in editing mode Web pages. But in this case it may turn out that the browser FrontPage will not display some elements of your pages, so it's best to:
use the button on the toolbar
or in File menu select item Preview r in the browser.

If you used the first method, the contents of your page will be displayed in the built-in browser FrontPage.
If you used the second method, then FrontPage will display a dialog box View in browser...

Here you can:
Select the browser in which you want to view your Web page. Typically displayed here initially browser, which is installed by default on your machine.
Add any other browser, for which you need to use the button Add.
Edit or delete installed browsers.
Set the screen size on which your Web page

Preservation Web pages.

Default FrontPage instead of a name pages takes the first line of text from yours pages. This is not always what is needed. You can change the page title using Change buttons- clicking this button opens the Title dialog box pages, in which you can change the name pages.

Removal Web pages.

When working with Website sooner or later it will happen that you no longer need some pages and you will want to delete them.

There are three ways to remove Web pages.

1 way

In the panel Folder list select the file you want to delete and click the button Delete on keyboard.

Method 2

In the panel Folder list right click on file(or icon file), which needs to be deleted and in the context menu that appears, select the item Delete.

3 way

IN List panel folders select the file that you want to delete and then select Delete from the Edit menu.

Work with text.

At first glance, entering text into FrontPage is no different from entering text in any text editor (for example, in Microsoft Word).
To type text, simply click the mouse anywhere on the page, and the cursor will be placed at the nearest point where the text can be entered.
Typing capital letters, editing text (deleting characters, inserting text, etc.) is done exactly the same as in Microsoft Word.
There is only one small BUT: when you press Enter keys in FrontPage the cursor is forced to move to a new line, while fixed characters are placed before and after the paragraph paragraph indentations.
If you don't need to create paragraphs, then it's best to use a keyboard shortcut to go to a new line Shift +Enter.

Working with images.

Graphically formats in Web.

All computer images, all formats for storing them (and, consequently, all programs for processing them) are divided into two large classes - vector and raster. Vector image consists of objects - geometric shapes made up of straight lines, arcs, circles and Bezier curves. Advantages vector graphics a lot. From a designer’s point of view, its most important advantage is that vector graphics can be “twirled” as you like, without fear of “rubbing a hole” in the image or losing some information. Another advantage is the small size of files (compared to raster images) and independence from the resolution of output devices (be it a printer or a monitor screen). These factors made vector graphics likely candidate for use in Internet. However, it is worth mentioning that at the moment vector graphics are not as common as we would like.
However, among the actually used vector formats, I would like to note the format Shockwave Flash Macromedia. To view this format in browser need a plugin ( plug-in), distributed free of charge by the company Macromedia. Today, there are both sites created entirely using this technology, and sites used Flash format only partially.
The raster representation of graphics is based on the concept of a raster. Raster is a collection of objects (in this case, pixels) placed in identical rows and columns. Those. raster computer file can be thought of as a collection of small colored or gray squares that form a mosaic of an image. Because Since the size of these squares is obviously small, when viewing raster graphics these squares merge with each other, forming a continuous change of colors.

The raster image storage format has both its advantages and disadvantages. One of the big advantages of raster graphics is the ability to work with halftones, i.e. the ability to convey an image exactly as it looks in real life. But among the disadvantages, the main problem is the file size. Naturally, the more pixels allocated for forming Images, the higher the quality of the transmitted Images, but the file size will thereby be larger.
If we now return to browsers, then we can say the following: most browsers can display without problems graphic files four formats (* .gif, *.jpg, *.png, *.bmp), of which at the moment it is best to use two - * .gif and *.jpg. And even then after preliminary optimization.
Inserting images on Web page.
Insert an image into your Web page can be done in several ways:
1. Drag an image from Windows Explorer(that is, directly from the explorer).
2. Drag an image from Internet Explorer.

Images... – selecting that menu item gives you the opportunity to use a ready-made library of pictures.
From file... – selecting this menu item gives you the opportunity to independently indicate the location of the image file that you want to add to your Web page(using this item will open a dialog box Drawing, the work with which was described above).
Create a photo collection... - using this menu item you can create a collection of images in a specific style. For this in the window that opens Properties photo collections using a button Add on the tab Drawings select images, and on the tab Layout select a design format.

Working with tables.

Table- one of the most powerful tools used in website creation.
Initially tables were used only for representing structured data. However, they have gradually evolved into a powerful, all-purpose layout tool. Web pages.

Creating tables

The easiest way creating a table– use the button Add table located on the toolbar Standard.
Another way is using the item menu Table  Insert  Table.
And table can be drawn and pasted using the clipboard.

Data entry and table navigation.

One of the great things about tables is that the text you enter is formatted within the cell in the same way that we're used to formatting it throughout the document. Text placed in a cell automatically wraps to a new line if its length exceeds the width of the column. When you press a key Enter, as usual, a new paragraph is inserted. Text or numbers are entered into the table from the keyboard.

Before entering data into table, you need to place the text cursor in the desired cell tables. This can be done by clicking on it with the mouse.

However, it is more convenient to use key combinations to move between cells:
Keyboard shortcuts: Action:

Tab anywhere in the table, except the end of the last row, go to the adjacent cell and select its contents
Tab at the end of the last line add a new line to the bottom of the table
Shift+Tab go to the previous cell and highlight its contents
Enter start new paragraph
Enter at the beginning of the first cell add text before the table at the beginning of the document

Creating and applying forms.

Forms represent text fields, radio buttons, check boxes, buttons and many other controls. A site visitor just needs to enter some information in one or another text field, select some data from the proposed list, click on the Send button so that the data is sent to Web server for processing (or processed right there on the page).

Let's get to know you - please fill out the following fields:
Your name:

Your last name:

Your date of birth: year month day

Thank you! And now - let's go!

7. What birds do not hatch their chicks?

8. What birds cannot fly?

If you need to select several answers, press and do not release the key Ctrl and left-click on the desired answer

But creating forms on the very page that's only half the job. Since there must be a program that can process the data entered by the user using forms.
Such a program can be located on a server; it may be in yours Website in the form of a separate file, or can simply be written in code html on your Web page.
It is she who determines what will happen to the information entered by the user:

information can be added to the database and various graphs, ratings... can be built on its basis;
information can be sent by email (this is often used to obtain information about the user in various types of questionnaires);
information can be processed right on the spot and the visitor to your site will immediately receive feedback (for example, they will receive points for a test, they will see the information they entered in the guest book...).

In a relationship forms There are several basic rules:

1. Each form occupies a certain area Web pages. On one Web page one or more forms may be located.
2. Each form must contain at least one of the form elements (although, as a rule, there are several of them).
3.Each element forms has a name and meaning. The name identifies the field for entering information, and the value is equal to the value selected by the user.
4. One of the form elements (it can be a regular button or any picture) must perform the function of a button Send.

Creating forms in FrontPage.
To add a form to Web page, necessary:

Place the cursor where you want to paste form.
IN Insert menu choose item Form, in the menu that opens, select again item Form. Form will be placed on your Web page- an area marked with a dotted frame will appear with two buttons: Send and Reset.
Using the same point menu Insert  Form insert the elements you need sequentially forms by selecting them from the drop-down cascading menu (remember that all form elements are inserted inside the form area marked with a dotted frame).
After form created, all that remains is to fill it with content - elements forms, text, images, tables... (with dimensions forms will change automatically).
Add content forms can be done in the usual way. For example, text can be typed or pasted from the clipboard... All actions with added objects are similar.
However creating a form- this is just the beginning of the work. After creating it, you need to configure the properties as forms, and its elements.

Setting form properties.

To process or store data entered by visitors Web pages, you must either take advantage of the opportunities provided FrontPage Server Extensions, or some other program running on Web server.
But no matter what program you choose, you will still have to configure the properties of the form and the elements in it.
To open the form properties window, you need to:
V Insert menu choose item Form, and then -
or
Call the context menu for the form and select the item in the context menu that opens Form properties.
As a result, a dialog box will open Form properties.

1. B Save field results must indicate what will need to be done with the data entered into form. You can choose the following options:
o Sending File name- the data will be placed in the specified file on Web server. This file may be Web page, which will become longer and longer over time, or a data file that can then be processed in Excel, Access or any other program;
o Sending Mail Address- in this case, every time the visitor clicks Web pages Send to buttons form an email will be generated and sent to the address you provided. This message will contain all the data that was entered by the user on Web page.
o In the database- in this case the data forms will be sent to the database. The base must be on Web server(or be available to him).
2. B Properties field form, you must specify the form name
Viewing modes FrontPage.
FrontPage offers six different modes to view content Website:
