Basically a customer of us publish her website using FrontPage. However, none of the navigation menues/bars are showing up when browsing the site. Interestingly, they do show up if I RD to the winbox and double click the file directly to open with IE (so the URL in the address bar is "file://..."). Anyone got any idea what's going on? Thanks in advance.

Please make sure of the following: 1. Extensions are turned on for the site. See http://www.psoft.net/HSdocumentation...xtensions.html 2. That they are publishing to a http address rather than an FTP address (they have to put "http://" as part of the publish to URL). Thank you. __________________ Peter M.

Your user will need to go back and correct all those URL's before anything will work properly. Andrew __________________ www.profitability.net 513.361.0800 Secure colocation and application hosting

In the files themselves, every links are using virtual path.
